Northern PikeTechniqueSwim JigsSeasonSpring (Post-Spawn)StructureSubmerged VegetationSwim jigging a bunch of vegetation on the north side of the lake. Not much luck but as my jig was about to leave the water this guy nailed it. About 5 ft from my paddle board. Almost a topwater. No other action that day.

Fishing off the shore on the west side of the lake, caught some small bass and then had a bigger bite. Got this smaller northern on the ned rig! Fun fight for being a little guy. Lot of bait fish around, near vegetation.

Fish seem to be on normal summer time patterns, with a majority of fish being caught in cover whether it is lily pads, sparse vegetation or docks. Caught numerous fish as with my big fish going for 3lb 8oz.

Biggest fish of the day came on a swim jig working wind blown weed edges, but the most consistent bite came from following mega schools of baitfish feeding high in the water column just outside of weed edges. Pitching a drop shot just outside the schools was usually enough to entice some of the bass lurking below the swarm.

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.
