SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueBladed JigsSeasonSpring (Pre-Spawn)StructureSubmerged VegetationI fished a club tournament with my brother. The night before it stormed and the wind was predicted to blow as the day went along. We started in a small creek and worked our way back. We caught a lot of non keepers around the grass with chatterbaits. Finally, I got towards the last break before the flats and landed a 3.6 lber. Unfortunately, the high-schoolers decided to come straight for the area after seeing it. We decided to go to another area. On the way there, I got a feeling to hit a row of docks with grass around them with a break in 8-10 ft. We chatterbaited around with no success, but my brother picked up the A-rig and caught a keeper. From then on, I locked the rig in my hand. I used a lighter A-rig with 1/8 oz heads a Scottsboro Tackle 3 inch swimbaits so I could keep it above the grass. I started catching 3 lb class fish. A few of them already looked spawned out. We just kept working that stretch back and forth until the wind picked up and blew the floating eel grass in. We ended up with 14.5 lbs.

Burn bright red/orange chatterbaits/lipless crankbaits over shallow holes in the eelgrass. 2/4 foot of water. Use side imaging and/or 360 to locate and target the holes.
SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueWacky RigsSeasonSpring (Post-Spawn)StructureSubmerged VegetationFish very slow, Throw around in 3 foot or less and let it set for about 30 sec. and then pick it up slowly, he may have it already. If that dont work throw a small swimbait out a little deeper. Hope that helps
