Largemouth BassTechniqueDrop ShotSeasonFallStructureBouldersBass are keying in on rocks. This is the time of year where location is more critical than presentation. Caught many bass on the drop shot with the new Mustad Alpha Point hook! Bass were also caught on chatterbaits, spinnerbaits and ned rigs.
SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueMedium Diving Crankbaits (7'-12')SeasonFallStructureSubmerged VegetationI found the bass in 9-12 ft. of water along the weedline. The bigger fish were on hard spots along the weeds. I had to be occasionally snagging weeds to get bites. This bite is only going to get better in the next couple of weeks.

The bass were in 8-10 feet of water where rocks and gravel meet weeds. The best action was where the greenest coontail was next to the rocks. Dying cabbage only produced a few smaller fish.

The bass are starting to show fall patterns. Large schools of bluegill are congragating out on deep rock and weed edges. If rock exists on a weed edge, even better. Tossing a 1/2oz spinnerbait was the tickets. Let it hit bottom and slowly work it back to the boat.

Largemouth could be found feeding around offshore hard bottom areas. The areas with the biggest fish had some kind of rock or gravel present Areas near grass seem to do well also. Dragging a half ounce of ball jig through these areas very slowly got some quality bites.
