Picked up around 50 Bass on Mooney fishing the Senko around brush and trees in 6-8 feet of water. The bass are in post spawn mode and are about to make the push to their summer feedgin areas. If there is a piece of cover in 6-8 feet their was a bass around them.

Top 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.

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.

Hit the main lake points with the Zara Spook early in the morning. Largest bast was 6lbs 14 oz. Caught a total of around 15 bass in three hours. Top water action is heating up for sure.

Had 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.

Post spawn conditions the bass were holding tight to any type of structure in 5-8 feet. Put over 20 bass in the boat in 2.5 hours. Technique was highly productive.
