Largemouth BassTechniqueBladed JigsSeasonFallStructureBaitfishHere’s a throw back when I first started bass fishing, it was very cold that morning with not adequate water conditions. But they were still kinda chasing fish, just gotta keep at it. I always throw either a spinner bait or chatter when bait fish are being chased, but the chatter bait is always my first pick, just gotta stay consistent.

Skipping/pitching under docks was really effective for me at this lake. You want to thow a bait that creates a good vibration and is also in a dark color like Junebug so the fish can see it in the muddy water.

This thing slayed in the afternoon bite. They really responded to soft walking on top. Pretty much every fish was hooked up, it has a small profile they weren’t missing it.

Got most of my bites bumping the chatterbait along the rocks and burning it by grass. Lighter colors work great and you want a trailer with lots of action. The more water you displace the better.

While the sun was still high and hot a lot of fish were tucked pretty deep into the deeper grass. Throwing a heavy jig with a pointed head was crucial for getting down into the grass where the fish were.

Made probably 15 casts, then made my final cast and sat on my phone. Next thing I knew I had a fish on, just sitting on bottom. Crazy fish but definitely fun.🫡🐟

I went out to the lake around 4:00 so the sun was still high but there were solid shad lines. Skipping a smaller jig into bank cover got me a few nice bites.
