Eel grass with hydrilla mixed in about 5' just off edge into 8' cast into the 8' and rip it back jerk it out of the grass for the bite. clear water some wind. When the wind picks up find shallow flat near 5-6' with grass about 1' below surface throw the spinner bait and rip thru the shallow grass for the bite.

The fish are now in their summer time patterns here in Florida and the key to catching fish on this lake is to follow the "bait"! You can either idle around on your graphs and look for it above the weeds or you can put ur trolling motor on high and look for activity. Or as I like to do. Just find the windy shorelines! The bait is pushed along those areas and the Bass follow suit. High speed Reel is key to keep those fish pegged over the grass and not letting them burry you in it. Also I prefer a longer rod than most with my topwater to get a little further of casts. :)
