TechniqueSwim JigsSeasonSummerStructureMatted GrassFish were biting this morning. Started with a popmax and got one on that while the sun was rising. After that I picked apart the grass with a swim jig and a Texas rig. Targeted the grass points with wind/current pushing against the grass. Seem to concentrate the fish.

TechniqueFinesse JigsSeasonSpring (Post-Spawn)StructurePointsDink City today! Fished the grass line and rocky points that made a break in the grass. Didn’t seem to want to hit anything moving so slowed down and dragged a finesse jig and neko worm with a 7/16 tungsten nail weight. Not that many people on the lake for holiday weekend. Great morning to get out!

TechniqueTexas Rigs (Pitch/Flip)SeasonSpring (Pre-Spawn)StructureSubmerged VegetationFound a few fish punching grass lines and holes in submerged vegetation in about 5–6 feet of water. Didn’t see much activity up shallow near the bank, but with the water temps and conditions, the spawn has to be close.

TechniqueNeko RigsSeasonSpring (Pre-Spawn)StructurePointsStarted catching some on a point with a neko rig. Switched between that and a shakey head with a zoom trick worm. They seem to be stacked up so I switched to the finesse football jig and was able to catch bigger fish. It was a great afternoon of fishing!!

TechniqueWacky RigsSeasonSummerStructureRock PileFor bass, we fished the islands on the north arm of the lake. Most luck was found by using a wacky rigged stick bait and casting up shallow. Some luck was had throwing a football jig on the edges of the rock pile with a rage craw.
