At Ming the Bass bite continues to be solid. Earlier this week, our contacts reported fooling Bass with small jigs, chatter baits, soft plastics on drop shot and bluegill imitation baits. The bluegill are in shallow and have an excellent bite going on meal or red worms. Crappie are picking up mini jigs and small/medium live shiners.
