It was humid and hot but we found some bass in about 13ft of water. We had a ton of fun catching bass on swim jigs and weighted texas rigs.

Late summer morning and the bite was tough offshore. Found some largemouth on tree stumps close to deep water. Caught a warmouth as well. I was pleasantly surprised at how well this bait performed let it jsink shake the rod, lift and drop, then watch your line. You can see the line jump when they took it. Definitely recommend braid to leader as it will help when watching line. Stay fishy and tight lines!

Michigan lakes are choked with vegetation in the summer and that’s where the fish are. Fishing that submerged grass can be challenging. I like to stay on top of it by fishing a lightly weighted weedless fluke. The Houdini color from Zoom imitates bluegill perfectly and the twist lock hook from owner helps me not tear up the nose on flukes with every fish. If you like to fish flukes you need to try this combo out. Tight lines!
