Fishing deep grass lines and clumps in 10-15’ produced good numbers and decent size. Bites came both on the fall and during hops. Make sure to slow down and pick apart each section of grass you come across as fish seemed to get grouped up as the sun got higher.

Excellent day: Cool start to day until low 80s into the afternoon. ~5mph wind with low gusts. Fish was not too active in the early morning, but picked up an hour or two after sunrise. Water clarity was usually 1' or less in most places, but only opened up to 3' in other areas so I went with more white and chartreuse colors. I was getting absolutely no bites on the bladed jigs (chatter baits) until I switched over to slow rolling it. After that, the bites were on! Great back-to-back action. Downsizing to the Mini Max also seemed to have been helpful. There were a good number of areas with depth, so I swapped over to the the dropshot later and had a good time finding several schools within the 15' - 20' transitions. Many of them had a ton of fight! Some of the best fighting bass I've fished this year. Good length and sizes (well-fed).
