Points and patience. Lots of twitching and pausing. Lots of follows. Stick with it, and they’ll eat. Water has cooled a little bit, morning bite is crucial to jump on them, then patiently work on upgrades.

Tiny shad in the lake around a 1"-1.5" long getting hammered by bass in mornings lots of schooling. Can catch a few shaking a minnow around bait balls. Shallow water guy at heart skipping senkos back under and into the most gnarly bank cover got my most bites. Caught a few out cranking and slowly working a worm on humps. Water is very warm go early.

Fishing shallow grass with a big worm produced the biggest bites. Caught some using a frog as well. Fish were chasing bait over deep water but could get any to bite.

Dragging a big worm is a staple on Sinclair. Junebug or green pumpkin are the colors you need. Summer time frogging is also a great way to get big bites. Mid strolling and weightless senko’s are finesse ways that consistently catch this time of year.

A jig is hard to beat when you find deeper structure. A free rig fished in the same areas is another good finesse option.

A frog is hard to beat for a big bite in the summer. A drop shot around the deeper docks and brush for numbers.

It’s hot 🥵 but we were still able to catch some good ones at lake Eufaula around submerged vegetation and deep brush piles. Good luck and tight lines 🤙
