TechniqueBladed JigsSeasonSummerStructureSubmerged VegetationWater temps about 80 degrees most places. Overcast and windy this morning. I was fishing outside weed edges in 8-10 with the wind blowing into them. A chatterbait and and white double willow burned over the top some good bites. Later in the morning I picked up a couple throwing a Spro Bronzeye frog near rocks and shoreline vegetation. Strikes came within a foot or two of shore.

Largemouth Bass
TechniqueSoft Body Swimbaits (Small/Medium)SeasonSummerStructureDocksFirst time out on Waubesa today prepping for a kayak tournament on Monday. Had 10 bass on and landed 8. I hooked into 6 bass all under one specific dock which is the most I have ever picked up off of one dock before. One of the fish I landed was a northern towards the end of the day. The bite is hot on Waubesa right now and if you are considering fishing there I would recommend you do!

TechniqueTexas Rigs (Worming)SeasonSpring (Post-Spawn)StructureSubmerged VegetationFan casted areas that had older bass spawning beds with emergent vegetation. Also caught bass in the same area using a small popper and if wood was present, I would cast a zoom horny toad over and around those areas with some success. Fished in the annual Take a Vet Fishing event and everyone who participated had a great time. My first time as a boat captain and I thoroughly enjoyed being there.

TechniqueSwim JigsSeasonSpring (Post-Spawn)StructureSubmerged VegetationThe 2 pound largies are feeding up hard on the blue gills! I pulled 4 off one bluegill bed area alone. Fish those swim jigs right over the tops and around the weed edges and you’ll smash them!
