Grass = Bass. Locate the thickest, nastiest grass cover in the area and "walk" your frog along the edges and holes within it....and pause it. Strikes will come on the pause and will be vicious. ***This is Frank Jackson Lake ***

If you haven’t used the Geecrack Neko Hack you need to. Slammed them on Neko rig and these held up perfectly! Paired with a Slink O and hang on for the bite! Fished in grass pockets. Will be trying with some GeeCrack plastics shortly on brim beds

I caught over 30 bass on unpegged Texas rigged senko's in 4-12 feet of water. I was targeting sparse submerged grass clumps that were just barely topped out to the surface. Specifically the grass on the outside of areas with shell beds shallow where bluegills were spawning. I was fishing aggressively ripping and popping the Texas Rig over/through these grass clumps and they were smashing it. Ended up with over 50 bass that day and 36 of them came on an unpegged Texas rigged senko. The other fish came on a walking topwater, spinner baits, and chatterbaits during the early shad spawn and I had a handful on bluegill patterned popping frogs in the pads.

I fished Guntersville this weekend mainly focusing on shallow fish. I started off by catching some solid fish by pitching a texas rigged senko on docks and later caught a lot of fish on a grass edge with a chatterbait in 4-6 ft of water. I caught a lot of fish in the 2-4 pound range but no giants. The bite was pretty good.

Caught a 27 lb limit, with a 9 lb kicker, fishing shallow grass around spawning flats with stumps. Early in the morning I caught a bunch on buzz baits in 1 - 4 ft of water. The bigger females all came on chatterbaits and swim jigs imitating gizzard shad in 5-10 ft of water just outside the spawning flats.

Bass were feeding on shad in the morning. Chatterbait worked best. Later in the morning I caught them shallow feeding on bluegill using senkos, frogs, and some other soft plastics.
