Fishing thick weeds in backwaters. Was extremely important to find somewhere that had lots of weeds but still had some current. Tossing the swim jig into the mats of lily pads did the best. You needed braid to get the fish out of the lilys.

Was catching them up the black river in the breaks of the floating docks, just pulling it through some rock and they seemed to be there. They seemed to be on the rip-rap banks. Nothing simple other than just dragging a worm. Also was a morning bite, everything seemed to die by about 9:00.
