Cover lots of water with a frog. Focus on shallow grass. You won't get a lot of bites but will catch better than average fish.

Bass are still using main lake points and deeper banks. Look for healthy grass in 8-10 feet of water, rock and wood. Fish a T Rig worm or jig slow to pick up bites. 8-12 feet is the best depth!
