Fished hard cover first thing in the morning with moving and slowbaits, topwater to dragging bottom with no sigificant bites. Moved to a grass flat near high tide at 0900 and caught our first fish ripping a chatterbait out of the grass. The bite felt more like grass than a fish for the first bit. Pattern continued until near low tide, when the bite shifted to more subtle baits. Best bite at that point was a Yum Dinger on an Ozark rig with a small spinner blade attached to the tail. Swim it through the sparse grass, "ripping" it out when it gets caught. The bite continued to be subtle and hard to distiguish from grass. Managed 6 fish caught, 1 got off, 5 best weighed 13.5#.

Find the grass and just start throwing, wacky rigs worked well for me but swim jigs and drop shots produced. Can’t go wrong really, chatterbaits caught a few. Frogs in matted grass.
