Caught about a dozen on a short day, they were really hanging around the edge of grass. Jack hammer was the keys to getting those bites!

Had to work hard to find green weeds remaining in the late fall. Once I found them, I found the bass. There were strong winds and waves that were blowing the bait fish. Almost all chunky bass caught were caught on the shore the wind was pounding.

Water temp was about 75 degrees, not bad after yesterday's heat. Visibility in the water was low, maybe 3-4 feet tops. We fished the south side of the lake, and the bass were in the pads. We fished the edges and had some success with the wacky rig. Frogs across the pads were not producing many hits. Given the murky water, dark colored lures are best.

Caught good numbers and sizes with wacky rigs near the milfoil. Top water bite was good through the early morning and swim jigs caught some later in the day.

In the late evening the bass came out of the shallows to feed in 5-10' of water. They were hitting the wacky rig HARD. Water is a bit murky, so I was using bright and dark color 6" XZone sticks. They really seem to like the laminates. Also, the #2 VMC wacky hooks never fail me. The bass on this lake are a good fight, and using the right size hook makes the difference between boating them and losing them.

Ripping a swim jig through the submerged vegetation yielded solid sizes and numbers. Wacky and neko rigs worked well too.
