U225X PUBLIC SUMMARY
Record: DAT-KANSAS-WORM-0412 / Worm Fishing in the Morning
Status: Recovered / Needs retest

SUMMARY
The working plan uses two rods during the first few morning hours: a heavier bottom setup with a nightcrawler for catfish and a lighter worm rig for bass and crappie. Start shallow around rocky, woody, windy, or brushy structure at first light, then follow fish toward deeper edges, channel transitions, bridge structure, or cover as the sun rises.

FIELD PLAN
- Use a sliding-sinker bottom rig and legal circle hook for catfish.
- Work a light or weightless worm near riprap, wood, docks, weeds, brush, or creek mouths for bass.
- Suspend a small worm piece 6–18 inches above cover for crappie, adjusting bobber depth.
- Record water, weather, depth, bait size, structure, and species caught.

LIMITS
