Largemouth BassTechniqueHard Topwater (Popping)SeasonSpring (Post-Spawn)StructurePointsHad a very productive day on Lake Mooney. Bass were biting on Top Water early, crushed them on a Rebel Pop R on main lake points. The rest of the bites came off either a Keitech Easy Shiner or the Jackall Flick Shake in 6-10 of water around any type of cover. Overall 15 bass caught biggest was close to 4lbs.

Targeting Bass in the brush at 10-14 feet, put about 40 in the boat on the wacky rig. Made it look easy.

Productive day of fishing on Mooney, the bass were hanging in 6-9 foot range on brush piles or stumps. Dropping the Keitech Easy shiner into the brush and letting float down slowly was a killer. Caught about 20 bass on that technique in the 1-3 pound range.

Tournament with the High Voltage Bass Club! Had a decent day on the lake on this tournament. Top Water was on fire first thing in the morning landed one close to 5lbs and a few others. As soon as the sun got high in the sky I moved to underwater stumps and sticks on points down around 8-10 feet with the Zoom trick worm, the bite was slow but got my limit. Ended up in 6th place for the tournament.

Second day in a row catching post spawn bass off secondary points. Fish were in 8-10 foot of water. Slow presentation with the Keitech Easy Shiner drew the bite. Put about 15 in the boat in 4 hours several in the the 3+ pound range.

Fish have moved into post spawn conditions. I caught all my bass in 7-10 foot of water on standing brush/stumps/timber on mostly secondary points. The Keitech Easy Shiner was the bait that did it for me, slow presentation. I caught about 10 bass in 2.5 hours with this presentation.
SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueHard JerkbaitsSeasonSpring (Post-Spawn)StructureFlooded BrushTop Water was hot in the morning on points and Islands. The Zara Spook got the job done, landed a nice 5lber with it. The fish moved onto the flooded brush/timber in 8-10 feet. I was catching them on a Culprit worm watermelon red. The worm setup was in a "Texas Glide' configuration (internal nail wait not a traditional bullet weight) to allow the worm to fall down in the trees slowly.
