Slow morning for honkers. Caught in approximately 5 to 6 feet with xzone swammer rigged onto vmc minnow shaker head 3/8oz. Slower retrieval this morning around lay downs and brush. When sun came out the bite slowed down. Great area to fish.

Landed a few largemouths on swim jigs and bladed jigs. They have moved near secondary points anywhere from 50' to 10' depths. Put on bellows shad on a swim jig as trailer and the bass couldn't resist.

Mid morning as water temps rise to 71 degrees the bite turned on. I caught several largemouth bass on bluegill colored swim jig with menace twin tail trailer. Caught some with green pumpkin trick worm dragging around submerged vegetation and lay downs. Water clarity was 2 feet so stuck with natural colors. Swim jigs and floating worms will get bit. Good luck.
