Weeds grew significantly compared to last year. Most of the lakes weed edge went up to 15 feet of water. There was some areas in the bays that had little to no weed growth in less than 5 feet. These areas the fish were mostly biting on either chatterbaits and spinnerbaits. Black and Blue worked great and the Bassman Chart Shad did as well. Did not see any bass on beds yet but I'm sure that will change real soon.

Docking fishing with the sukoshi bug was a big hit. Caught a lot of fish but the larger 3-4 pound fish were hitting the ned sukoshi bug. Deeper water 10-12 feet also had fish near the diminishing weeds but still held fish.
