Fast retrieves through the weeds produced a bunch of little ones the slower I went with my retrieve the bigger the fish were. Algea hasn't showed up yet but the weeds are pretty bad. Fished in about 8 foot of water through the weed beds

The fish are hiding in the grass on the bottom of the lake. Fish Ned rig really slow on top of the grass. The bite is subtle. Find the fish in 20’ of water around the island.

a Carolina Rig is a really good bait for me almost year round offshore at sand hollow. a lot of people throw a drop shot and although that gets bit, I have found Carolina Rig can get a couple extra bites or a bigger bite. Fish in 20-30 feet around the two dams or any offshore grass and rock transitions.

Fishing has continued to stay very good. Fish have moved up a little in the 20 to 25 foot range. Slow rolling a spinnerbait or a 3.8 keitech fat swing impact on a fish head underpin hat been extremely effective. Play around with weight on the jig heads. Sometimes they want it to fall slow and hit it as it's falling. Sometimes they want the bait slow rolled just above the grass. Also, play around with bait size. 3.8 catches more fish, but 4.8 catches bigger fish.

Fishing has been good at Sand Hollow. Fishing a drop shot or ned rig is almost always effective. Bigger fish have been crushing a slow rolled spinnerbait in deeper water.

The water level is extremely low. The bass have been congregated on rock piles, ledges, and grass flats. Texas rigged curly tail worms and bladed jigs have been extremely effective the last several weeks.
