Largemouth BassTechniqueDrop ShotSeasonSpring (Pre-Spawn)StructureSubmerged VegetationIt was a cool and calm day with bluebird skies in the afternoon. I saw a lot of movement on the water, but it seemed like they didn't want to bite anything. So, I used some finesse and tied on a drop shot with a Zoom finesse worm and worked the edges of some submerged grass until I finally got a bite.

Largemouth BassTechniqueDrop ShotSeasonSpring (Pre-Spawn)StructureReedsIt was a cool, calm night fishing a boat launch that had a reed edge and a deep drop off. I was drop shotting a zoom finesse worm in junebug along the Reed edges. When I night fish, I find drop shot works well if you kind of slowly work it back instead of popping it. I cast it out along the edges again and worked it down the drop off, and then I thought I got snagged, but it turned out it was a 6 lb bass, and the fight was on.
