Look for beds and frye guarders. Most of the bass have finished, but there is still another wave of bed fish on the way. Most of the fish are in groups of 3 and those fish seem to be a little more aggressive and you may be able to pull more than one fish off of the bed, but the key is patience. Make good flips past the bed and slowly swim the bait up to the and shake the heck out of it. It may take a few flips, but they will EAT IT!

Fished points early for spotted bass with a #5 shadrap in Caribbean shad. Once sun was high moved to docks and laydowns for largemouth bite. Fish had spawned only caught bucks saw lots of small fry up shallow mid lake.
