Fish are still suspended and chowing down on schools of bait fish. They move really fast so it is hard to stay on top of them and get a bait in front of them. If you can get a bait in front of them they bite almost every time though. They should be spawning soon.

I was using a spook on main lake and smaller pockets off the main lake as well as a fluke, pearl white. The bass were really active for about 2 hours then it died off fairly quick once the Shad spawn ended.
