Largemouth BassTechniqueSoft JerkbaitsSeasonSummerStructureDocksMost of our fish were caught skipping a weightless Yamatanuki or Bellow gill under docks, Black and Blue outperformed any color. Near sunset we were able to upgrade a few using a ned rig outside weed lines. A couple of 4lb 12oz fish came in from our Tuesday night club.

Fished a green horn tournament on south center and majority of the fish we caught were on weed lines next to pads. Caught around 20 fish within 30 minutes doing this throw your wacky rig on edges of the grass or pads. Also caught a few on frogs in the pads, couldn’t get a bit anywhere besides in the pads and weed lines by the pads.

Went south of the lake and was trying to punch and frog the pads for Bass but could not get much of that going. Trolled the boat around and saw a pad to cat tail transition and tossed my white terminator swim jig. Upon the first few cranks, i was able to catch a hog!

North and South have been fishing tough, they have been beaten on by tournament pressure. I found that I had to slow down and work areas thoroughly. I had some success throwing a neko rig in the rocks. Look for areas where weeds are close by the rock, or the rock runs into the weeds. I didn't catch a ton of fish, but the ones I caught were good ones.
PJ PiotrowskiBronze AmbassadorSpeciesLargemouth BassTechniqueShakey HeadsSeasonSummerStructureSubmerged VegetationFished a Greenhorn Bass Tour tournament this past Sunday, and focused on grass lines in 8-12 feet of water. Got most of our bites fishing slow with finesse techniques like drop shots, shaky heads, and jig worms. Also, caught a few decent fish off docks early in the morning skipping docks with a jig. A couple of the top teams caught their fish flipping/punching pads.
