Went fishing after work today from around 6-730pm in the usual spot. I forgot to bring my lures (all my catches have been on crankbait lures) and all I had were plastic worms of various colors and sizes that I have been using for about a month with ABSOLUTELY no result.
Was pitching 5 inch watermelon with bright yellow tip senso worms; texas rigged by some downed trees in the water with tree overhanging.

I got this guy on my 3rd pitch, he hit it as it was sinking. As you can see my line got wrapped in a tree branch and I couldn't get him loose. Eventually the branched snapped and he got away! He was big! I was thinking about going in the water and getting him as he hung there... Damnit.
Moved to another area with tree cover and downed logs/branches and started pitching my worm.

11 inch largemouth bass that I got working the worm slowly over a log in the water.
That was it for the day, ran out of line, ran out of that worm, and the mosquitoes were getting way too annoying.
