We got on the lake at sunrise and fished coves with crankbaits. I caught my bass on the Rapala Rocco and the BX Brat. All the fish were shallow and hanging around submerged brush where there was also a clean and rocky bottom. The fish were mostly in the mouth to the middle of the coves for us. The key was finding banks with river rock and submerged trees and brush and casting right up to the bank and coming in contact with cover. There were some buck bass on beds but they weren’t locked on. The bite was on fire from sunrise to about 9 to 9:3O am and then it shut off. I also caught the bass in the picture on a green pumpkin swim jig with a speed craw trailer fished in the same areas as the crankbaits.
