Fished from 10am-4pm but fish seemed to be harder to find as the day got warmer. I tried moving baits(chatter bait, jerk bait) early on where I could see baitfish jumping but quickly switched to a drop shot and got some fish early. After that, it was a grind as bites were hard to come by. Best fish was a 2.75lber on a weightless texas rigged senko later in the day. Best spots seemed to be in the 10-20ft range where the submerged weeds taper off.

Millfoil is filling in and slop is thick so bring your big sticks. Picking at the weed edges and flipping into holes in the slop pulled out a few fish, but had the best luck looking for schools of bluegill that were sunning a few feet into open water outside of weed edges; bass were hanging out below them. Some could be coaxed up to hit a stop and go topwater, but dropping a texas rig (either worm or creature, both worked) through the bluegill swarm and into the bass's face was more repeatable.
