Largemouth BassTechniqueTexas Rigs (Worming)SeasonSummerStructureSubmerged VegetationHigh of 86°F, NW wind at 6mph, relatively calm and sunny with some cloud cover mixed in throughout the day. Bass have wrapped up spawning and moved to their post spawn summer areas off shore. Most of our fish came on a pegged 1/4oz Texas rig with a big 7 to 10 inch curly tail worm fished along deep grass edges. It was key to let the worm sit still for long periods of time before hopping it off the bottom. A few fish also came on a Bandit 200 series crankbait burned across the top of the grass. Most fish were sitting in 6 to 8 feet of water.
