Frist time on deer lake today; started working pad fields and submerged weeds with topwater (frog) but only got one blow up so I moved to docks where I started skipping a wacky rigged senko under docks and that is where I found some really nice bass, even one that was big enough to break me off after running back under the dock twice!
- SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueDrop ShotSeasonSummerStructureSubmerged Vegetation
Look for deep weed edges and points and work a drop shot. You will have to weed through some smaller fish, but there are some above average fish in Deer. Docks and the pads by the launch are worth checking out. I like to throw a heavier jig around the pads on Deer.

Look for individual open pockets in the weed beds.
Preston McManamyBronze AmbassadorSpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueFrogs/ToadsSeasonSummerStructureDocksThere are plenty of lily pads on this lake so having a frog tied on is a must. Make sure to cast way back in some of these because the bass will push up shallow and sit in the shade. Also throwing a frog around docks can produce bites.

find weed edges in 10-15 feet and sitting back from them and cast up into the weeds and work your jig back to you. Also throwing a swimbait along the weed edges will produce bites.
- SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueDrop ShotSeasonSummerStructureSubmerged Vegetation
Work the deeper weed edged (12-17') with either a drop shot or Tokyo rigged plastic. For the drop shot I use a power minnow and for the Tokyo rig I use either a Pitboss (any craw will work) or a swim jig plastic. Present the Tokyo rig with a slow hopping motion.
