Spent a little time over a couple days on Irene during a family vacation. Largemouth were all over in the weeds. Caught them on weed edges anywhere from 10-17' deep, flipping topped out vegetation, and in a foot of water near bullrushes. Anything green pumpkin shined. The bigger size Berkley flat worm on a drop shot produced the best numbers. Stick baits worked very well. Texas rigged creatures and soft body swim baits didn't do as well but still caught fish. Frog bite would happen in the evening, white got the most blow ups. Bigger bass seemed oriented towards bluegill. Cloudy/windy days the gills backed out of the shallows and so did the bass. I did not find the quality I was hoping for... lots of bass but the 16-17" fish were not very present. Caught several 18's but nothing bigger than that.
