Largemouth BassTechniqueWacky RigsSeasonSummerStructureSubmerged VegetationToday I had a Kayak bass tournament for the Elite Kayak Series. After two days of practice I was able to locate a couple productive areas in the grass for largemouth bass even found a bedding smallmouth with 70ish degree water temps. I switched between a wacky rig and a Texas rigged worm. In the morning I even messed with a spro epop (popper). I caught a ton of largemouth and finished 12th out of 43.

I think the trick was finding the right type of grass near rock piles, humps, and shoals and dragging a bait as slow as you could. I also got bit on a Carolina rig.
