Catchword: jumps

Filed under: English, Sports & Recreation

Part of speech: n.pl.

Quotation: You look down again and the water’s boiling all around you. And you begin to see the culprits: white bass. They’re murdering a school of baitfish, and those baitfish are going airborne in a frantic attempt to escape. The scene, occurring at a lake near you and often called the “jumps” in Kentucky, is the perfect opportunity to do some marauding of your own. [...] Casting topwater lures into “jumps” (fish feeding on bait fish near the surface) is the most exciting fishing.
