It was HOT out. Air temps were about 90°, water temps ranged from 85° to 90° in the shallows. Mostly bluebird skies. Quite a few pleasure craft out on the lake as well, so pretty heavy traffic. Vegetation is THICK. We started off hitting the pads with some frogs and got a quick hit on a 13", and then not another frog bite the rest of the evening. First keeper was caught dragging a yamatanuki on the bottom pretty slowly (popping it through the weeds). The rest of the keepers were all caught on a wacky rig. Every fish caught on the wacky was a cast to the edge of the pads (either where the pads came out to a point or where there was a deeper pocket in the pads, I eventually stopped targeting the longer unbroken stretches of pads unless there were surface disturbances. I was just letting the wacky fall to the bottom and wiggling the tip of the rod until I got a bite. Tried very hard to get a top water bite going into the evening as there was a substantial amount of surface action. It looked to be a recent Bass spawn as there were a lot of 2.5-3" bass in bait balls moving around and popping at the surface. We actually caught a substantial number of fish, but only had 5 keepers for the night, but managed to win. Weights- 8.89lbs 7.7lbs 6.6lbs Big Bass - 3.6lbs
