Largemouth Bass
TechniqueBladed JigsSeasonSummerStructureRock PileHuge schools of bluegills are concentrating out on deep weed edges. Find these schools and the bass are nearby. Toss anything that resembles a bluegill. Start with moving baits (chatterbaits, spinnerbaits, swimbaits, crankbaits, etc). If the bass arent cooperating, then slow down and try more finese presentations (ned rig, wacky senko, football jig, texas rigged worm, etc)
