pre spawn pattern

well the temps right, the weather is right, the moon phase isn't but in a few weeks it will be. but the fish are right where they are supposed to be these last 2 weeks.the last couple of weeks the bass have been up in the wood cover, often snuggled up right to the bank. its a classic early pre spawn place for them to be. its kinda funny , here in hawaii the water has to cool down to activate them, on the mainland it has to warm up hahaha. they are lethargic still right now. mother nature hasn't tripped the trigger to start the feeding frenzy. although they have been fairly co operative with very slow moving baits dragged around lay downs and  under ironwood roots and branches, they haven't turned to the aggressive feeding to fatten up pattern yet. i predict it will happen soon, i tried several secondary points outside of the coves to check for staging bass but with no luck. that will be a bonanza for anyone that lucks into the few days they are there preparing to move into the coves. its also a good place if a cold front comes thrue. they will pull back out to deeper water unless they are on the nest. the big females will be there before and after the spawn. always check em this time of year!!  ohhhh man i wanna be out on the water this weekend so bad dammit!! hahaha
