Largemouth BassTechniqueTexas Rigs (Pitch/Flip)SeasonSummerStructureLaydownsFound fish both flipping laydowns and casting jig and minnow combos on the steeper ledges. Most of the fish were on the smaller size (<15in) but we did manage to find a couple 3 pounders.

I was catching them pretty consistently just casting up in to the lily pads and retrieving it back to me usually would get hit as the weed line was clearing. Black Booyah Pad Crasher was the key to success!

Using a 5 foot ultralight set up with 4 lb mono on the bank Several small bass and a couple decent bluegills were caught near weed patches. Lots of fun on an ultralight.

Offshore is the name of the game. Find hard weed edges that are clean or get off the edges of the humps and inside turns. It’s not easy but bites are big when you get them.

This jig and trailer combo was a top producer last week. I would take the jig and toss it right on the outside of the weed structure , let it settle, and swim it back to me slowly. I caught about 10 large mouth using this method.

Bluegill were surface feeding over the top of the weed flats. Throwing a popper created some pretty explosive strikes even if the size was mostly small.
