Fished a club event on 7/11. Fishing was tough for me generally target rocks and am able to catch fish but this day they just were not there. Shallow grass/bushes seemed to be the best bite for numbers based on club feedback. The winners caught them deeper on jigs in brush piles I believe. I caught my fish on a spro frog a square bill and 2 on a jackhammer.
