SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueStructure JigsSeasonSummerStructureDocksSlow and steady grind. Sunny skies and about 85 air temp. Caught best 5 for just over 18lbs. Fish came mostly skipping docks, but two of the larger keepers came on isolated shallow brush and stumps. All fish caught on a jig. Warning: be very careful launching at the boat ramp by the dam. The lake is extremely low right now and the boat ramp drops off and is almost out of the water.
