Largemouth Bass
TechniqueStructure JigsSeasonSpring (Post-Spawn)StructureHumpsStarted early morning throwing spinnerbait parallel on weed edges by buoys and got a mixed bag(largemouth, smallmouth, walleye and pike). When the sun came up higher slowed down with the jig and worked the rock weed transitions out -> in. Got a few bites 5+ feet but ended up being very shallow. Ended up setting my boat in 2ft of water and casting as shallow as I could on top of humps ripping the jig through the weeds. Good numbers and size.

Largemouth Bass
TechniqueWacky RigsSeasonSpring (Post-Spawn)StructureDocksWacky worm is a killer here getting a fish almost under every single dock! Water was super dirty this year but the fishing is just as good with that black and blue wacky worm. Lots of high 2 pounders and some 3s in the mix as well!

Largemouth Bass
TechniqueStructure JigsSeasonSummerStructureDocksCabin lake has a lovely dock bite in the summer! Skipped the Outkast Cage Feider like a dream in some dirty water under the docks. Almost every dock that wasn’t chocked out and had a sandy bottom had a fish under it. Caught a ton like I always do!

Walleye
TechniqueBladed JigsSeasonFallStructureDocksThis was a tough, tough lake. I was targeting bass and caught a 24" walleye on a bladed jig. Another 3-4 hours netted one small largemouth. I finally found the bass schooling BEHIND one of the docks, catching 5 decent sized largemouth on wacky in 22 minutes. There's a lot of fish here, and you just need to find out where the hungry ones are and what they want to eat. Oh, and the walleye may be hungry, too!
