Caught a lot of fish this trip. All came from around the hay grass. Best bite came early while it was overcast and foggy. Alternated between the Senko in watermelon red and the white jackhammer with a zoom twin tail white trailer. Bite slowed down once the sun got up. Post spawn is in full-swing. Still can catch a few late spawners as well.

Located some decent fish in the 3' range up in the hay grass. You could occasionaly catch them on a frog but the weightless senko was the reliable producer for the day. You had to dead stick it.

Caught some good top water action walking a spook. Had a giant blow up on me right off the bat, right next tot he boat that scared the crud out of me and I jerked too soon. After that I was able to slow down and stick about 6-7 decent fish. Over the top of hydrilla in less than 10 feet depth. Be sure to change your hooks on all your top water and crankbaits to the triple grip hooks. I rarely lose a fish with those hooks. They really are the best for any bait that has treble hooks. The braided line was huge as well as some fish would drag it down into the grass, but with the braid and the triple grips I did not lose any but that first one.

Fishing a submerged laydown with a small squarebill. Strike occurred in about 3ft water about 5ft from the bank. 5lbs 11oz! New PB. I was using very light line so I was worried she was going to break me off but I hauled her in after a good fight.

The early morning top water bite has been great. They are smashing the baits when they are sitting still. Work it subtly and then let it sit. Fun times. As the day goes on you will have to slow down. We did well with weightless Senko's.

Cast to the up wind side of the trees and move bait slowly using the count down method so the bait falls back to the bottom . Look for any line movement or different feeling of the bait.
