A cold front moved in and water temperatures were falling. The sky was overcast and the wind was 15 mph with gusts to 25mph. Found bass in 1’-3’ of water near reeds with underwater brush and submerged grass. The bite was aggressive and super shallow or right against the reeds.

I love shallow cranking in the summertime on this lake. The lake has an abundance of small bait and it’s hard to match it. Instead of matching it give them something bigger and better. The 2.5 squarebill crankbait is great for drawing in curious bass and getting them to react to it Not only does it trick fish into but I’m fit, but it gets bigger bites as well. I have had several 20+lb days on these crankbaits. Make sure to have a good strong rod to get those bigger hooks in those fish! Good luck!
