      Matted Grass

    There are some good fish to be found on the outside edges of the matted up curlyleaf that surrounds the lake. Plenty of numbers can be caught on a neko rig or wacky rig, but we found more consistent big bites came on Texas and Tokyo rigged creature baits, as well as jigs.

      71°

    Outing was for June 22, 2024 fished from 730 to 1215. Weather was heavily overcast. Water was 70 to 72. Very humid. Heavy algae bloom must have just occured. Small fish seemed to be up tight to shore with very high water level with all the recent rain. Highest I have ever seen. No wake in effect. Had some luck with frogs up shallow and skipping a senko. Best pattern was flipping a dbomb on an outside weedline. Got into a nice school and caught 6 or 7 pretty quickly on a green pumpkin dbomb woth added chartreuse garlic spike it marker. Overall great morning.
