Fatbelly Bassmasters tournament #5. Warm and sunny with a consistent breeze. Did a little junk fishing early on and caught a few green bass on frogs and flipping. But most fish came on the dropshot fishing humps. Tried a few different dropshot baits but the desert craw half shell seemed to get bit the most. No action necessary... Basically dead sticking it was most effective.

Find the edge of the submerged vegetation on any large points. Work your way through the outer edges of the weeds. Once you run into one, drop it down again, there will be more. As the day goes on, move up just a bit shallower and throw the jerkbait around to catch any cruisers

I was throwing a drop shot everywhere and catching both smallies and largies on the weed edge and rock piles. most of the big ones came off of rocks but had a few key largies up shallow later in the day as well. drop shot was the main deal because it was so versatile out deep and was very windy.
