I was fishing off a dock in the fall blue skies and calm water. Next to the dock, they had sunk some Christmas trees for structure, and I started ripping a red eye shad lipless around them, and then this guy hit it and gave up a good little fight.
SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueDrop ShotSeasonFallStructureSubmerged VegetationIt was a cool, partially cloudy day with calm water. I started the morning with some topwater. But I didn't have any luck with that. I then tried throwing a couple of jerkbaits and some swimbaits, but nothing wanted to commit. I then tied on a dropshot and was piecing out some vegetation when I finally got a bite. This fish was small, but at least I caught something.

It was a warm fall day, so I took the kayak put and was throwing some baits around and kind of just getting a feel for it. I anchored parallel to a point with a steep drop off and started swimming around the dark sleeper and ended up catching one.

It was a clear cooler morning with blue skies, and I was fishing off a point. I wasn't noticing too much movement in the water, so I figured I would try a finesse presentation and throw the ol wacky worm around. I tied on a vmc neko hook and a yum dinger and started casting around some brush piles and laydowns. It was not long before I saw my line start swimming to the side, so I set the hook, and to my surprise, a decent bass was on the other end. It was a fun fight to get him in on, but I'm glad I was able to.

It was a cool day with a strong breeze, and the water had a little ripple on it. I was casting around a bit and saw a decent amount of fry and bait swimming off this point. I tried some topwater with no effect , so I switched it up to a moving bait. I almost had the bait to the bank when this fish hit my lure like a ton of bricks.

It is a cool, windy day, and I was fishing off a point around some submerged vegetation. I was popping the bellows shad in and out of the weeds and dragging it around the edges. I cast it one more time, and I felt the bite.
