Started fishing at 8 am and the water temp was 68 degrees. Tried a ned rig with only a few small fish in shallow water 2 to 4 ft. Then tried a couple different square bills without any action. A jerkbait only caught a couple of small fish also. Went to the drop shot for the first time this season and started to catch them. The zoom trick worm was getting the job done. Tried two colors of zoom worms and the green got the most bites. The flat worm did ok but were too costly for fun fishing. Ended the day with a 20 in largemouth that was pushing 5 pounds. Had somewhere around a 13-pound bag, 5 fish limit.

Fish were holding to shade early in the evening, but water temps in the mid 80's made them pretty lethargic. Lots of half hearted hits on wacky worms, t-rigged stick baits but no quality fish until the sun started going down. Once the sun was down, top water prop baits and poppers started firing off really well and caught some quality fish.

After several days of rain, I knew the bite would be slow especially in the middle of the day. I haven't ever fished a Neko rig before but it seemed to be what I should try. I caught a 15 in bass out of a hole in the weeds in about 6 ft of water. It ended up being the only fish I caught even after going back through that same area with a couple different baits. Time was short so I didn't fish any longer. At least I wasn't skunked.
