Fish were using cover on flats adjacent to the main river channel to ambush bait. There were small bite windows in the morning and afternoon where bass would pull up on these flats to feed. The largemouth and smallmouth would mix together and setup on isolated pieces of cover near the channel swing. During the day, the bass would become inactive on the flats, but you could occasionally find them under bait balls on the main lake
