Word on the water is Coon had a bad winter kill this year, that being said fishing was tough. I was able to get bites ripping a Square-bill through vegetation and flipping a heavy jig around holes in the milfoil.

This outing was for 6/18/2025 and was our GreenHorn Wednesday Night Tournament for the week. The weather started out a bit wacky with a big pop-up thunderstorm delaying blastoff about 15 minutes. The wind and rain really picked up and was glad blast off was delayed. After the storm the weather was beautiful. Overall fishing was a bit slow for us without a ton of numbers, but caught good quality and brought home the WIN! We fished up shallow all night, primarily fishing docks and trying some frogging in the slop. I caught our kicker fish under a dock, which was big bass of the tournament, a 5 pounder! We culled maybe 1 time all night, but caught maybe 10 keepers, just happened that the ones in the livewell were bigger at the time.

Found some fish skipping docks in very skinny water. Some fish came off docks in less than a foot of water.

Shoreline grass seems to be affected by chemical treatments. Healthier grass appears to be growing in 8-14' off the bank, fish seem to be holding in these edges and were eating finesse presentations (ned, dropshot). Fish also seem to be holding up under docks in VERY skinny water. Dock fish were biting wacky Senko's and Texas rigs skipped into the dark area's. Fish have also been caught running chatter baits in clean water near the big reed island on the west lake.

Fish were eating good out there this Sunday! Better fish were coming off the outside were edges on clumped coon tail. The bigger fish seemed to be just into the weeds and they wanted it slow with little shakes. But lower the better seemed to be the key!

Fishing an underwater point in 14-18 ft of water and slowly working the worm back to the boat.
