Fished out of Ticonderoga for a two day club tournament. 25mph south winds turned the water into chocolate milk by mid morning, but it turned into a pattern of finding wind breaks and clean water. Nothing fancy bait wise...dragged a 5” Green pumpkin Maxscent General with a 1/16th bullet weight thru milfoil in 3-5’ of water.

TechniqueTexas Rigs (Pitch/Flip)SeasonSummerStructureMatted GrassAnother 20+ lb sack and win for pops and I on Champlain! Hot and hazy conditions always seem to have that lake on fire. The best bites came from pitching the swimming mama to the deepest edge of mats. If they didn’t smoke it on the fall they would smash it on the swim out. Love this bait!!
