Reeds
Deer Lake's fall pattern (Early October) seemed too be very focused on fish hanging around remaining vegetation. Reeds that were around sand & rock seemed to hold LOTS of fish, even if the water was very shallow. Flipping a ned rig around the reeds caught smallmouth & largemouth. Bigger fish could be caught on offshore reefs, but the larger schools seemed to be concentrated around reeds. Reed lines near deeper water were VERY stacked. Ned rig and dropshot were the main producers, with the football jig also getting some bites. Flipping Texas rigs into the reeds caught some decent largemouth as well.
