Here we are January 2nd 2016 and were still talking keeper bass!, unbelievable. Yes the past three days have seen at least 5 keeper bass hit the scales in our area. These fish have all been 30 plus inch fish and taken on bait and lures alike. So if you haven't put your rods away yet, head to the beach and give it a shot, for you may never see keeper bass in January again for quite some time, but then who knows?... John Yac
