    The fish were holding very tight to wood and would not chase a moving bait. Slower presentations worked best. The key was pitching the jig directly to the base of isolated stumps and letting it fall on semi-slack line. Most bites came on the initial fall, and if a bite didn’t happen within the first few seconds, moving to the next stump was more productive than staying in one area too long. Focus on isolated wood near deeper water or creek channel swings.

      Matted Grass

    Speed walking a frog over matted grass then pausing over any type of pockets in the grass gets you lots of good bites. Follow up missed blowups with some sort of stickbait
