Report:
weed was a major problem at location one so moved to another spot which also had weed but not as bad. Only got four bass. Still it was ok. Tried my new measure on one but it was too short. Didnt bother tryin it after that as the fish were larger.

Get a Rapala measure...they're much longer, or better still get one of the B.A.S.S. tapes. You'll certainly need them with all those doubles :D .
