Over the past 3-4 weeks, the bass at Lake of the Ozarks have transitioned into a late summer pattern. I am catching quality fish around brush piles at depths of 12-18ft using jigs and Texas rigged worms. Some of the baits that are working are the 1/2 oz Crock-O-Gator Zapper jig, the Crock-O-Gator COG worm, and the Zoom Ole Monster. On my Texas rigs I prefer a lighter weight, 5/16 or 3/8oz. This will help it come through the cover.
