Banner Marsh is a collection of old strip pits, marsh and ponds along the Illinois River. I visited here and boy does it hold some amazing bass! There is a ton of submerged vegetation with deep drop offs along the edges. Bass will hold along the edges as well as up underneath the vegetation mats. Had great success with weightless texas rigs in this area, allowing the worm to drift into the edges of the submerged vegetation along drop offs.

Bass were feeding on shad before sunrise. Pitched a jackhammer in open weed pockets and bass would hit them before I could even start reeling. After sunrise they would hit topwater plastics skimmed across the surface along shorelines with tall grass. Also got some to hit a 3/8 green pumpkin swim jig with paddle tail trailer.
