Reeds
I was frog fishing and following up missed fish with the worm. The monofiliment keeper kind of got in the way of a couple hooksets but i was not getting hung up all the time either. I made a video of the trip - Check it out to see how i fished this bait. https://youtu.be/AiOC8ft5NIM?si=o6D2iK0UBGaLwAdS

Minnows
Late Summer the bass move out deep. Around 9 or 10 in the morning they school up and start chasing the minnows to the surface. It looks like a feeding frenzy while 100's of bass are doing their best to catch these little minnows. The forage is 2-3" minnows so it is hard to get the bass to target in on baits bigger than that. The trick Ive found out to use on this lake in the summer is smaller baits and erratic action to mimic the minnows they are chasing. I caught 3 bass in one cast using the yum-brella 5 wire with the 2 1/2" grubs and caught many others on small 3" jerkbaits. Get a boat and take your kids out to have a blast with these "schoolies" in the summer. Link to my youtube channel of this episode https://youtu.be/nvNVYH9tKf4
