Walleyes are not as hard to catch on this lake as you think. Cover a lot of water and hole hop with spoons. This one hit without it being tipped with a minnow head

I caught bass on wacky rigs right off the outside edge of the weedline. My buddy John caught and released this 42 inch musky while we were fishing a drop off.

I caught a few bass on green pumpkin Senkos, but when I switched to Purple, the bass really started to hit them. Some days, the color makes the difference. The bass were on drop-offs and also submerged weeds in 7 to 8 feet of water.

Post front conditions and the fishing was slow. We worked the weed edge until we got bites and slowed down. Keep an eye on your contour maps for slight changes such and inside/outside turns with healthy, green vegetation as the fish seem to be tight to cover. We got largemouth in areas where we felt the bluegill nibbling on the ned jigs. Slow down if you feel those bites because bass are right behind them. Pairing a chartreuse jig head with a green pumpkin MG Lures floating wormed seems to work best.

I used a drop shot on the outside edge of the weedline in 10 to 12 feet of water. The big bass are definitely deep right now.

Had a tournament out there couple weeks ago. It was hard tourment was culling most of the time but it was only oz upgrades. Best way to find them is get down to the range of 16-20 feet and try to find weed patch’s if you can do that where they will be. I was flipping with a Texas rig with a woo tungsten 1/2 with 6th sense flipping bait that is what worked best for me
