Al..
2 years ago while prefishing the evening before the next days tourny I picked up a 7lber on a spinner bait. broke off at the boat, caught 5-9 more on one bankall about 2-6 lbs..
That next morning we had the tourny. my first cast was in the same spot I lost the 7 on the second cast I caught it on a buzzbait and I got my spinner bait back as well( Ive done it with worm fishing but never a spinnerbait or heavy bait). I also picked up every fish I caught the night before on buzzbaits and spinner baits with in 2 hours on the same 100 yard stretch of bank...
To me thats a once in a lifetime deal.
On worms and lizzards I have caught the same fish a few days (and A few times in the same day)in a row, just because when I knew I caught it twice I notched its tail..... it hit the same 4" bluefleck lizzard next to the same bush also....
Beds are easier... my daughter caught the same fish 9 times in one morning... right after relesing it they get more aggresive so they are easier to catch.
