Largemouth BassTechniqueFrogs/ToadsSeasonSummerStructureLily PadsWent out for a late afternoon/evening session. We found a few bass in the shallow Milfoil (4-6fow) flipping Texas rigged baits. However, our larger fish came on Frogs in the pads. We would catch them in the thick stuff, as well as on the edges.

Had a tournament out there couple weeks ago. It was hard tourment was culling most of the time but it was only oz upgrades. Best way to find them is get down to the range of 16-20 feet and try to find weed patch’s if you can do that where they will be. I was flipping with a Texas rig with a woo tungsten 1/2 with 6th sense flipping bait that is what worked best for me

Found Bass on the outside edges of the weeds using the Chatterbait. Also picked up a bonus northern at 26 1/2 inches. Found other bass on the flats that peaked out at 10 feet with hard bottom using the Z-man Ned Rig.

The Grass Island that is visible off the launch has a steep drop off on the south facing side of it. I have had great success flipping jigs up to the reeds and dragging them down the drop off. As well as using Dropshots doing this same technique, although the larger fish 3.5- 4+ have predominantly been on jigs. Trailers with a lot of action were best as a lot of bites came on the fall.

Wacky style with the new 5" Fat Senko was fire today. Compared to the original Senko, the increased diameter of the Fat Senko results in a slightly faster fall rate, which can be advantageous in certain situations. Also, the thicker profile of the Fat Senko makes it more visible to fish, potentially attracting more attention, especially in stained water. My key areas was outside weedlines.

The Z-Man chatterbait is hot on this lake! My approach was targeting deep outside weedlines (10-15 fow) and points, along with a slow, bottom-bumping retrieve.

Outing report is for July 9th, 2025. This was the third tournament in our Wednesday night tournament series with Greenhorn. Overall we didn't do so hot. Weather for the evening was calm and very warm, high in the low 80's with full sun. We caught lots of small bass in the 12 inch range, but struggled to get a good bite. We stuck up shallow all night and fished docks, pads and matted grass. One key seemed to be pad, or matted grass in the shade of trees. We skipped docks, threw frogs etc and just didn't get a big bite all night. Big was probably a little under 3 pounds. Overall we finished in 14th place........
