Ha ha, my 1st bass of 2018 was on Jan 2 and my last bass of 2017 was on Dec 28. That's right, all year long, never a rest. Just yesterday, a 3.4 pound. About 20 or so, lost the count, LoL, during this winter. Just need to find the very right spot, the very right lure and the very right retrieve. Each and every ponds are different, got absolutely nothing from some ponds. I have not got anything with a chatterbait yet, might try it more after watching your video.
