The heavy winds for a short period of time stirred up the waters and made it a bit difficult to see, but the fish were still biting. The most success in shallow waters that were stained with a few feet of visibility. Using black and blue chatterbait, spinnerbaits, and flipping stumps in creek channels. Wacky rigs around grass edges and docks.

Dead sticking a weightless 5" Senko. Throwing into laydown allowing senko to fall to bottom and letting it lie still for 10-15 seconds then pulling up slowly to see if fish has picked it up. If not move it just a little allowing it to settle back to bottom and remain motionless again. We caught several bass up to 5.5 lbs using this method during early morning up to about 10 AM. Weather got extremely hot bite slacked off and we got off the water. Good luck and use patience when fishing the hot water, drink plenty of liquids and use sun screen when out on the water
