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

Early in the day we got on pre-spawners in 8-12ft of water on deep weed edges. The cleaner grass was better. Fish moved up into shallower spawning flats as the day went on and the Chatterbait EVO with the Crush City Freeloader on it became the best presentation.

Found a few smallies locked on beds as well as a lot of largemouth cruising shallow. Fish are shallow!

Was fishing rock flats for still bedding smallmouth. Was dropping a drop shot on their bed and slowly jigging it to make them bite. Was fishing 2 to 4 feet of water.
