Largemouth Bass
TechniqueDrop ShotSeasonSummerStructureDocksExcellent dropshot fishing near docks tonight! Just rig up a finesse rod with these dropshot components and throw where the weed lines meet the docks. There are so many fish at docks right now. Cast within 6” of the docks and let the bait fall to the bottom. Let it sit for 5 second and if you don’t get a bite, reel in and recast. There are multiple 3+lb fish per dock right now.

Muskie
TechniqueDrop ShotSeasonSummerStructureSubmerged VegetationTarget tiger muskie by targering bass. Often times they can be caught in the evening hours near weedlines. These Mustad Alpha Point hooks allow you to target these fish without getting hung up in weeds. Just rig it up, and twitch it near the weedlines. Ive caught three of these in the last 3 days witht he same technique.

Largemouth Bass
TechniqueDrop ShotSeasonSummerStructureSubmerged VegetationJust rig up a dropshot, and cast it out over weed lines. I like to rig up the Roboworm Texas rig so that you can pull it through the weeds easily. Just cast, and let it sit for 5 seconds. If you don’t have a fish, just recast. They will usually hit it on the fall.

This makes site fishing difficult to impossible. I put on a jerkbait to cover as much water as possible and did very well. Fish were really active and biting. Good day.

Just chuck and wind with a reel, reel, pause cadence. You’ll be on them in no time.
