Water is still high, tons of flow, and landings are still “closed” in La crosse. Went around barricades at landing with no issues. Finding flooded Trees and brush in backwaters with less flow was the best way to find the largemouth. Fishing was still a little slow but got on a few decent largemouth.

Flipping a sweet beaver to the undercut banks in goose island produced well. Found lots of big largemouths. Finding some sort of structure near the banks was a big plus when getting into the 3lb+ bass
