First day under 90F in awhile! Light rain and complete cloud cover all morning. Surface fishing wasn't working, so I switched over to ned rigs and the bass responded enthusiastically! Yoga pants is probably the best all purpose color offered by Z-man, and these worms stand perfectly upright.

Points
There are a lot of baby bass and bluegill in the water now and baitballs are showing up in spite of the heat. Small cranks are the way to go right now. All strikes were ~10ft off shore just where it started to cool off/deepen.

Texas rigged Brushhog. Flipping the edges of matted Grass. Find cooler water in shade lines or drains coming into the lake. Couldn't resist the bigger profile bait.

Flooded Brush
Just throwing at some dink bass during my lunch break. 2" paddle tail minnow on an underspin never fails! Longear sunfish and some little crappy we're getting after it as well. I just picked up the Dobyns Kadens from an Amazon sale (sorry Omnia) and though it is rated for 1/16oz lures, I think throwing 1/8oz is much more comfortable/will net much better casting distance.

Soft Jerkbaits

Points
We've had lots of rain lately, so the pond was a bit higher than usual and fairly clear considering. I was trying out my new Shimano Complex XR on a medium light rod, jerking along the fluke and reeling quickly. The bass responded pretty aggressively! I'll be sizing down 1/0 hooks going forward.

A spinner bait with a craw on it gets you most of the time a 2-5 pounder almost every 7-12 cast.
