Largemouth BassTechniqueSwim JigsSeasonSpring (Post-Spawn)StructureBaitfishWould cast out and slowly reel, and give it slight pauses and jigs. Worked throughout the water column and along the shoreline to entice hits. Worked best off drop-off points and around vegetation. Caught mostly bass less than 2 pounds and 1 crappie that was 8 inches

Caught quite a few just around the drop offs and ledges with weeds on a simple neko rig. The bigger ones were just past the drop off or ledges. While the smaller ones were pushed up a bit still. Not a lot on beds most had moved off of them.

Cast out as far as possible once the bait hits the water pause for a second before several rapid twitches to avoid weeds. Walk the shore fish will hit if around
SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueTexas Rigs (Worming)SeasonSpring (Spawn)StructureSubmerged VegetationWent around 7pm when sun was starting to go going down. Started around North western portion and worked bank slowly around till about South eastern portion. Only caught 3 bass in North western portion within ten minutes of each other. I was using a jika rig I made myself They were all on beds or adjacent to them. They wanted it a bit faster but enough time for them to think and hit it. Bass are now getting on to beds. But with upcoming weather they could be pushed off and the current spawn that is happening be delayed till it again warms up. Shimano mastiff held up wonderfully, it did require more effort to drive ewg into the mouths of the bass as they were all caught out quite far.

Were skittish of people coming up to shore line. Only fish I caught were on the Western and southern parts of the lake. Both of these sides had wind directly or indirectly on them. They wanted it slow and periodical taps of the Neko. Not a single one wanted it fast or jittery. They were on the verge of spawning more so staging up to.

I was using a ms craw from deps, neko rigged. Tossing around vegetation and drop offs. It’s been quite effective the past couple outings. Majority of fish are at weed lines or pushed out deep.

Caught multiple bass along concession stand to first curve on lake near dusk. This bass in picture was caught on the point of the lake on the southern end near the drop off on that side. Was the biggest of the day On that day the preferred colors the imitated the bluegill. Only had one bass hit a bright orange swim bait. And that was near where the kayaks would launch.
