Some fish were up shallow and spawning and some fish were chasing shad in small coves on the east side on the rez.

Had a cold front the night before and the active fish weren’t feeding on tournament day. The most consistent way for me to get bites was working the Cut-R-Worm very slowly through lily pad stems and around gator grass edges. At times I was almost dead-sticking the bait, and when I picked up there was a fish there. The bites were very soft. This is a great worm for this type of slow fishing.
