Flats with mixed with submerged vegetation are hold numerous fish that are moving shallow to spawn. Slow rolling a spinnerbait ticking the top of the grass would incite a strike. If they missed the bait through a follow up bait would usually put the fish in the boat. Good follow up baits tended to be a wacky rig or painfully slow worked jerkbait.

Found a nice group of fish setting up to spawn. Had quantity but not quality as far as overall weight. Put two dozen fish in the boat in about 45mins by throwing a shadow rap at a medium tempo around sparse grass in 5-8’ of water. Water temp in the area was 61 with stained water.
