I was unable to give my usual report since 8/19. However my partner and friend fished from 6-8 on 8/22 . They in the south weed in the large lake They caught 30 yes 30 fish. They used primitarly spinnerbaits war eagle , bsb. Lunkerlure. This just illustrates that this time of the year if you can find the fish they are not hard to catch.
SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueBuzzbaitsSeasonFallStructureSubmerged VegetationWas out on North Long and it was very foggy early, then sunny and calm into the afternoon. I was pre-fishing as a non-boater for a club tournament this weekend. We covered a lot of water. Fish were biting on top water in the fog and in the sun . I had a limit of two pound plus bass, but my biggest was maybe 2.66lbs. My boater threw bottom contact baits and outfished me about 2 to 1. Fish were about the same size, but his weight would have been a couple of pounds heavier because his limit was all cookie cutters out of my upper register. All of my fish came off shore around cabbage or coontail in 8 to 14’
