Fished the north end near Shanty Town with a large spread of tip-ups with shiners. Went 3 for 6 on pike with two bite-offs. The fish caught appeared to be shedding their teeth and bit on smaller baits.

Used large shiners on tip-ups for pike. Did extremely well in 6-8 fow, along the weed edges setting the baits 2 ft off the bottom. Used small size 10 trebles, a split shot 1 ft above the bait, and 17 lb fluorocarbon leaders.

Caught some really good quality largemouth on this dropshot setup, using both the roboworm and the lil general(rigged wacky on the dropshot). The weather was warm and dead calm so my presentation was pretty much dead sticking.

Caught fish all day long in slick calm hot weather. Biggest was 4.79. Weed edges in 4-5 feet of water seemed to hold the most fish.

We found quality bites pitching this jig to patches of weeds and the openings in them. Fish were in 5-6' of water. My partner and I caught three over 4 lb. and a few between 3 and 4 lb. Almost every bass hit the jig when it hit bottom on the initial pitch.

I hit as many main lake and secondary points as I could in the morning. Focus on 6-10 feet of water and if you have any kind of weeds whatsoever mixed with the rock, fish it slowly. Vast majority of the bites came on a slow drag followed by a pause. Water temp was 75 and fairly clear for Black Lake. It’s important to mention that anywhere there was an algae bloom, no bass were caught.
