Jigging off the bottom in the north end of lake Lanier in about 15 feet of water using a zoom super fluke Arkansas shiner on a Berkeley, 1/4 ounce jig head in white. Paint the gill plates red, they really like that. Caught them until I ran out of bait. Zoom flukes last about two fish on a jig head.

Flipping in and around docks. Fish caught were only at dock with boats in them or had lots of cover. All fish were in less than 15' of water.

Bass were bedding shallow. Look for lighter areas and first cast in and around those areas to optimal results.
