Largemouth BassTechniqueShallow Diving Crankbaits (0-6')SeasonSpring (Post-Spawn)StructureDocksKeyed in on private ramps. Ran the crank bait down both edges. Almost always got a good fish. Fished a wacky senko on the docks in between ramps, picked a few good ones that way too. Water started at 58 degrees in the morning ended up at 64 by end of day.

Had only a short amount of time before the weather got nasty. So I pulled out my ultimate confidence bait, the Zoom Trick worm in black. Get some and keep them on you always!

Just about anywhere you pick on this lake, they’ll eat the glide. I hade some violent strikes in the mid lake area. The bass seem to always hate the glides during that post spawn period. Long casts, and then just watch them show themselves. Once they start chasing, speed up your retrieve and that’s when they’d crush it!

Bank fishing and wasn't haven't much luck with a Texas rig or chatter bait. Started to get a little breezy and threw a spinner bait and still nothing. Went to the drop shot and the first drop this guy hit the Roboworm like a hammer and ran! The Seaguar line came through the brush and brought him in no problem.
