These bass were up really shallow protecting fry. It was already really hot out and I started fishing in the deeper water. I heard some fish up in the reeds and saw a lot of them cruizing between the reeds. I was able to get a Monster to come out and inhale the sixth sense flush 5.2 and it was a fish I wont soon forget. I was using a 4/0 hook but it really is made for a 5/0 hook. Make sure you get some 5/0 hooks because I missed 2 of the 3 fish I had bite becuase the hook did not get penetration. The 5/0 hook sits perfect on the bait and the point lines up with the back fin. It is a remarkable setup and an amazing bait to fish with. It is heavy enough to cast without weight and the tail has an amazing flutter on the fall. Hard to beat this made in Texas soft jerkbait when you need something weedless to catch bass chasing baitfish. Here is my YouTube video of the trip https://youtu.be/IZsjDqb-U1k

Use electronics to find the bait balls or follow the birds. Bass were actively schooled and feeding on baitfish in coves and secondary points. Lots of success with soft body swimbaits worked at slow to medium speed at lower depths.
