We were finding bass in 2-4 feet of water on grassy flats. Mostly submerged vegetation with a few lily pads mixed in. A Berkley Maxscent general texas rigged weightless got the bigger fish to eat. The Keitech swimbait got more bites with a lot of 10-15” bass. The worm got bass up to 3 lbs. by using a twitch twitch pause retrieve. I heard from other anglers the same story. Lots of shallow bass but not many big ones.

June 17-19 Water temps in the small bays were in the low 70s. I was able to get some good bites slow fishing a swim jig over the top of some submerged grass. The fish seemed to be in the back of pockets but not far from some deeper water, they were mostly post spawn fish feeding on bluegill.
