This month is the end of the annual ShareLunker Legacy Class Collection Period.  Since January 1 bass anglers have focused on catching an over 13-pound or larger class bass.  March is one of the best months to accomplish this task.

However, with the spawning of many bass complete there will be post-spawn fish that recover from the period and stage for the next phase of a bass’ life-cycle.  Many times, when one post-spawn bass is found others will also there.

Popular wildlife and sporting artist, plus regular TOJ Cover Art contributor Dallen Lambson’s “Hittin’ It Hard” has capture such a scene.  Congragated around woody structure several big bass are staged.  When a crankbait is thrown close, maybe even bousing off the submerged timber one lunker breaks for the bait thinking its an easy meal.  Once hooked up the battle ensues.

This is a great time of year to tangle with truly a bass of a lifetime.  This is true whether a spawning sow or a big post-spawn fish.
