Fish the weed beds between 5 & 13 feet deep. No need to Texas rig the TRD or use a weed guard on your Ned. If you alternate between dragging and hopping the Ned, vegetation is still sparse enough where you can work it through gently without getting snagged up and dragging weeds back to the boat. If you do this you’ll catch some little baby bass, some sunnies, and some decent sized bass too! Give it a try, keep your lines tight, and good luck!

Key bait was the lipless crankbait. All fish were caught in a weed line in 6-9’ of water. A mix of largemouth and northern pike throughout the day. Caught near 50 fish in the 7 hours I was out.

Outing was 6/5/2024, weather was in flux this day. Very windy, a front rolled through and upped the wind to ridiculous levels with some rain and lightning. Took a bit of a break during the lightning. This was for a GreenHorn tournament Wednesday evening. Caught all fish up shallow. Caught a couple on a frog and a pop-r. Mostly caught fish on finesse tactics up super shallow. All under 4 feet deep. Finished 3rd in the tournament and we were happy with the results.
