SpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueDrop ShotSeasonSpring (Post-Spawn)StructureSubmerged VegetationSeemed like a post spawn funk going on on the lake. Talked with 5 other boats on the water and nobody had caught anything except for a rock bass, so I felt privileged to find two decent largemouth dragging around a roboworm on a weedless drop shot. The grass was ripping out easily and didn't look good, so I am not sure if it was sprayed or something as well. The lake was fishing tough only a few weeks after they were being caught on almost anything. The fish I did find were right on edges of deeper lively isolated grass.

Frogging around reeds worked well this evening. Most fish came up tight to the reeds but almost where you might say the reeds made a point. Moving the frog fast proved the most success. Thrown on Cortland Line Masterbraid
