Reported by
Mac
Green Valley Lake (IA)
Mac reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Shakey Heads technique and Sunline Super FC Sniper on Green Valley Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Bass are lethargic right now, fish the shakey head very slow around deeper structure to pull them out of their cover. Plenty of bass to be caught in the 10-18 ft range if you find the correct structure. Almost fall transition so this bite is subject to change soon."

Fishing was a little bit better then yesterday but still struggled to find much size. We stuck to channel swing banks and secondary points in the middle portion of creek arms. Best two fishing methods were Shakey heads and drop shots. The Shakey head produced much better the first half of the day and the drop shot was the ticket the second half. The Shakey head I used was a homemade football style similar to the one above in 3/8oz. The Spike-it was key because of the stained water. We boated 40 fish all day with a 11-12lb limit. If you just wanna catch fish this was fun but I didn't come across and big ones.
