FROGGING - Water temperatures are now 70 degrees at Lake Juniper. For those unaware, Lake Juniper is a big fish factory. The lake has all the ingredients for high-quality big fish - hydrilla, milfoil, lily pads, standing timber, etc. With this type of cover and the high probability of catching a "biggun", a frog is a perfect choice 👌. Today was no different. The strikes were vicious and even touching the point of damaging the frog itself. My personal choice is the RIVER2SEA Phat Mat Frog in the SNIPE color (black). This brand of frog is much bulkier than others and has an incredible ability to attract bigger fish. In essence, the a hollow body frog is an excellent lure for this lake. The retrieve was fast, with all strikes occurring when the frog was moving.

Started off in the first cove and got 6 while in there. First one was about 1.09lbs caught in the narrow stretch coming in, then started along the reeds on the right and picked up 2 real quick on the point, 2.59lbs and 2.33lbs. Worked my way around and got the biggest one on the Berkley, pictured 5.09lbs. Others were caught on the Yum Swim n Dinger and the Strike king ocho. Moved down to the other cove and got a couple more, pound to pound and a half. Went across the lake and started fishing back up the shore line and got the others. They were all caught on a Babybass color worm.

Got out this morning and put 4 in the boat, lost 3 on the way to the boat and missed quite a few. Biggest one, pictured, was 4.3lbs. All were caught on the Gambler worm thrown up into shallow water near reeds, lily pads and submerged weeds. Started out in the back cove fishing along the docks, seawall, trees and any piece of wood I could see. Missed 4 in there before moving across the lake and fishing along the shore line, reeds, docks, lily pads and grass. Only caught em on the Gambler worm, they hit a Yum Swim n Dinger in Watermelon pearl but didn't get one hooked up.

Managed to catch a few decent fish fishing on offshore shell beds. Very slow. There was a cold front that came through which caused the fish to not want to cooperate. If you slowly drug the Carolina rig along shell beds or weed edges, they would bite. Very soft bites.

We managed to catch a few tossing Texas rigged craws along weed edges. Pretty slow tho. Some luck was had throwing Carolina rigs along offshore weed edges or shell beds. Mainly senkos but some on speed worms.

Flipping the big reed clumps and isolated reed clumps near ditches is producing some nice fish. 1/2 oz is plenty to get into those areas on the edges or just inside the reeds.

Flipping the newly grown vegetation from the summertime lake draw down is holding numbers of fish as well as spawning fish. Pegged, 1/2 oz is just enough to get through the grass. Lift and drop 2-4 times then re flip. Black and blue is my go to color.

Worked the topwater early but they did not want to bite. At 9am I switched game plans… I began working the main points of the lake with the black and blue worm on a Texas rig and was able to come up with a couple nice bass. I then caught a couple more along standing timber with the wacky rig green pumpkin Senko. Tenoroc is a great fishery with many fishing options for anglers. The FWC does a great job managing the bass and wildlife. It’s only open to anglers Friday - Monday and you must present your fishing license.

Tough day until we found them on grass edges. Thow a lipless crankbait around grass lines and in grass. You'll eventually find them.
