Those are some nice bass, though too bad the one was on its last leg. It's kind of looking like the bass are mostly spawned out now. That's what I found at Twin last week.
I saw a fair number of decent gills there, but they were predominately when I was wading the shallows on the inside line of the trees. Same with the better bass. Out in the tube fishing the outside edges I mostly saw those little wolf packs of small bass cruising about. I hadn't fished Twin for two years since it didn't fill all the way last year, but overall I was disappointed by the numbers and size of the fish of all species this year. I have a feeling I may have been a week or two late for most of the better bass action there. Maybe I'm just spoiled now. I still caught 46 bass, but I couldn't get any over 15". I did find one area towards evening that seems promising. I had already packed up my tube, so I could only wade it. I may have to hit it one more time to give it a try.
