Cold and windy, made spots on the west side shallow and crystal clear, east and middle muddy and deeper than usual. Reaction bites were the key, lipless cranks baits or chatterbaits through the eel grass. Got some snapping a wacky rig around submerged grass.

Started my day on a dock with a underwater light. Caught a couple on a 6” Senko wacky rigged. Once the sun came up I switched to a hard jerkbait and caught a couple on the outside of grass patches. Also had a couple bites on a Zoom Trick work in watermelon red with a 3/16 Woo Tungsten weight. Also had a few bites with a Gambler BB Cricket with a 1oz weight in the grass. Good day on the water, but the wind was rough.

We caught our fish early flipping Texas rigged senko style worms and swimming speed worms into/through the lily pads and around docks. In the afternoon we caught fish on shell beds on the main channel on jigs & Carolina rigged worms.

I used the wacky work to target the open water around grass and Lilly pads. They seemed to favor the watermelon red worm color!

I typically don't run the speed worm on a wacky rig but I gave it a shot and it was worth it, got a few about this size just running wacky rigs

Found secluded lily pads with reeds in deeper water. Cast close to lily pads, free lipless from reeds would cause fish to strike. Caught 14.

I found a school of fish feeding on shad out of a point. Dragging a Dirty Jigs Casting Jig was the trick. Black and blue was choice of color.

My dad smoked this 4lb bass right at the end of the day, we had been catching them all day on the Texas rig and wacky rig senkos (rember to use the O-rings on those wacky rigs) and right at the end of the day this tank smoked his Texas rig senko with Chartreuse tip, he was pulling it through the submerged hyrdila

Flippin in the shallow bushes produces the best bites. Might take awhile but they’re there
