Species
Largemouth BassTechniqueDrop ShotSeasonSpring (Pre-Spawn)StructureRock PileRigged the worm weedless to avoid snags on nearby weeds, dragging slowly over rock piles for stubborn bites.

Slow rolling crankbait off of rock piles, bite was very subtle, cold weather had the fish moving slow.

Caught during the evening fishing from the bank at the north side of the lake. Threw a dropshot with the jerk shadz nose hooked, twitching it back after casting it out. Bass was caught when I casted towards the lake, not along the bank.

Fish are currently in all stages of the spawn. Fish that are in pre spawn feeding patterns are holding under and around docks close to prime spawning. Skipping a worm under those docks gets a lot of quality bites.
