Largemouth BassTechniqueHard Topwater (Popping)SeasonSummerStructureLily PadsHad a great early morning bite. Was able to hook up 2 times but sadly was only able to land one 18.5 inch bass on the hula popper and lost one after he wrapped me up in some Lilly pads and spit the hook. You can’t win them all but it sure is fun trying!!! Over all a pretty good 4 hours of fishing

Got out on Lake Ann Sept 1st & Sept 8th. Frog bite was going well on the 1st... sunny day, light breeze. Plenty of fish bit in the lily pads, mostly where the main lake meets the long south bay. Most fish were smaller around 14" but a handful were nicer around 17". On the 8th, it was partly sunny and windy (10mph+) and the frog bite shut down... seems to be summer to fall transition as fish were all over the place. Picked one or two up on wacky rigs under docks, spinner bait, frog, dragging dark sleepers deep, and the best bite was deeper water 15-18' on the outside weed edge while throwing a deep diving crankbait. Natural colors worked best. jerkbait, chatterbait, and squarebills didn't do so hot. This lake has good numbers of bass in the 15-18" range.

SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueTexas Rigs (Pitch/Flip)SeasonSummerStructureSubmerged VegetationNumbers were caught on a Texas rig around the color line, 8ft-11ft deep. When the wind was up and cloud cover was present, a squarebill ripped through the tops of the milfoil was getting bites in the same areas. Tried a dt10 on the weedline as well but only got 1 with that. A dropshot on the outside of the weedline was getting bites. The deep coontail 17ft-20ft was quiet today. Docks were holding good fish as well... the shad color senko has been the hotbait for wacky rig colors this year on Ann. A more subtle action was key, the rage menace outperformed the rage bug and Yamamoto cowboy by far today.

Started hitting shallow water next to the pads with a crankbait and chatterbait. Couple of smaller fish hit the chatterbait. Moved to the south end of the lake where the wind was blowing towards and saw tons of baitfish making ripples on top. Scanned with the livescope and there were tons of fish feeding. Tossed a Z-man chatter bait and continuously reeled in multiple largemouth bass with the biggest one being 3.02#. Switched over to the Ned Rig with a senko cut in half as the bait and lights out! Cast after cast was a hit. Key is to let the Ned Rig drop to the bottom and make small twitching moves with your rod tip. Triggers them to hit!
