- SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueTexas Rigs (Pitch/Flip)SeasonSummerStructureDocks
Sunny day with 7mph steady breeze. Fishing midday, bass were piled up under docks and found some schools chasing bluegill/pumpkinseeds around the bullrush transition/inside weed line on the windy side of the lake. There's patchy weed clumps, some lily pads, and edges along the vallisneria just outside the reeds that bass were holding to. Texas rig here was the ticket. Wacky rig under docks got a ton of bites. Wasn't uncommon to catch 3 or more bass on each dock. Topwater baits did well during lowlight times... buzzbait or sprinker frog in reeds, whopper plopper in open water. Outside weed edge was productive but lower in numbers. Not much vegetation deeper than 6ft, which is uncommon on this lake in my experience. Ned rigs worked well on top of breaks and the mid-lake reef.
