Largemouth BassTechniqueHover/Mid-StrollingSeasonSummerStructureBaitfishThis outing we found schools of bass chasing balls of threadfin Shad and crushing top water and shaking a minnow. The fish weren’t related to structure but rather following the bait. So my main baits of choice were a zoom winged fluke and a strike king sexy dawg jr. Mainly trying to mimic Shad. My main thing to keep in mind is to get out as early as possible, the morning bite is crucial especially this time of year. Hopefully this bit of information helps out.

Early morning, just at light. Caught several on top-water.
SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueStructure JigsSeasonSummerStructureFlooded BrushWhen out in the kayak and wore them out on jigs fishing flooded trees/brush in 5 to 12 ft of water. Was able to find a huge concentration of bass on a small stretch of brush. Rotated between a 1/2 and 5/8 oz jig using the Daiwa Tatula Elite Cory Johnston Flipping rod. About every cast you would get bit, you have to weed through little ones for a big bite.

Fished our third tourney on this lake. Wacky rig, spinnerbait, jig all caught fish, but the wacky was the kind for the day pitching it into flooded brush. The 14LB Mastiff is turning out to be go to line for more of finesse applications, even over Sunline sniper. Zero memory, and the line took a beating all day. Solid solid stuff!
