Had a great night on Deer Lake in Wisconsin today. Started with a Rapala Maverick Jerk bait on 10 pound Shimano Mastiff Fc Fluorocarbon. Had to pause it for a Long time. Literally wait almost a minute between moves. Then we found some using need rigs in the same area just along the inside weed edges. My son got a 3 pounder under a dock and that was the only dock fish. Found the fish in the far south east side of the lake and in the center north end. Good luck the water is really clear.

Lily Pads
The bass will hang around the lily pads all summer and near docks. Throw a frog around the lily pads pausing it every so often in pockets between the pads for the bass to have a good chance to eat it.-Preston M

This lake produces numbers not size. I caught 107 bass with only 1 over 14". Both Ned Rig and drop shot produced fish. Worked the inner weed edge which varies from 3'-6'. The water is quite clear on this lake so right now it is fairly easy to see the weed line.

Water temp in the low 60s with air temps around the same. Hammered good numbers of fish with a 110 jr scanning for hard spots along inside weedlines, lots of the better largemouth are keying in on the bluegills that are pulling up to these hard spots to spawn. Also caught some fish cracking a shorty tube on these spots after I worked them throughly with the jerkbait.
