Used the crush city to target feeding bass near submerged grass or stumps. Changed cadence to elicit a reaction bite. Some liked it swam slowly while others wanted it fished like a jerk bait and would hit it on the pause.

We were throwing small jerkbaits above hydrilla lines to imitate the forage this time of year. The bit seemed to turn on later in the day once the wind began to pick up. This technique helped us place second at our tournament

School of fish suspended amongst fields of standing timber. We used the jerkbait to help locate schools of fish so we could slow down and pick them apart. Ended up with a little over 15 lbs which was good enough for 2nd.
