In the last 2-3 weeks two main factors have seemed to push bigger fish (3-4.5lbers) into slightly shallower water (4-8ft).These two factors have been cooler nighttime/morning temps, and dropping barometric pressure. I have found on days with either cooler morning temps (high 50s & low 60s) or falling barometric pressure due to approaching storms, the swim jig has produced significantly bigger bites in shallower grass. Fish the swim jig normally on a straight retrieve, allowing it to come into contact with the grass. Make sure to keep an eye on the weather to catch this bite. Good luck!
