Istokpoga is really low right now. This has positioned the fish on the edges of the deepest stretches of reeds on the lake. Anywhere where you have a few feet of water to flip you have a good chance of running into a few. While you can catch some flipping a swimming worm, It seemed like a heavier jig created a reaction strike and worked much better than a Texas rig. The shallow stuff is very difficult to get into with the low water. Make sure you are trimmed up and come in slow as you approach reed lines. I wouldn't even mess with the canals. Those fish are long gone.

Fished a Florida BASS Nation Kayak Series event. Caught most of my fish on wacky junebug 6” Senko under docks. Did catch 2 around grass and lily pads. Had to switch to a weightless Texas rig as I broke off all of my wacky hooks. Wind picked up and was harder to skip with the waves.
