Largemouth BassTechniqueHard JerkbaitsSeasonSpring (Pre-Spawn)StructureSubmerged VegetationCan find fish within the 4-10 foot range. Key things for this day is keeping the bait moving and just above the weeds. The biggest of the day was 4.71 pounds. Came out of 4 foot of water. The big ones seemed to be shallow but the numbers came out deeper.

This is a very shallow and weedy lake, especially around the edges. It is also a smaller lake but healthy. Earlier in the day, I had a good amount of action on topwater over shallow weeds. My grandpa fished the edge of the weeds with a soft swimbait and landed a huge 5 pounder. I also caught several on weed edges on a wacky-rigged senko.

Got most of my fish with a silver blade bait with just a slow steady retrieve with the occasional yo-yo. Got a few other fish on a black and blue senko and a few on a fire craw chatter bait.

Did not catch many fish tonight before the storm but got this nice one shortly before having to leave! I was fishing the frog over open water weeds and she couldn’t resist! The swamp lord is quickly becoming my favorite frog. Greta hook up ratio and great walking motion.

Fishing was tough today. I found some fish around the cribs that someone dropped out there but colder water temps and lack of grass made it tough to locate fish. The fish I caught came out of 13 foot of water tight to the wood. Long pauses on the jerk bait was key today. Hopefully water pops over 50 soon!
