Locating bedding bass and areas of transition will yield the best results. Fish the shakey head slow and remember at any point a bass could be looking at. Fishing the rip rap scattered about the lake can be a good way produce nice bags. Points near spawning areas can also be great for catching quality bags as well. Natural and bluegill-esque themed colors will work best, but confidence is key so play around with your favorite colors
