Best fish of the day. Just shy of 5lbs. Caught pitching into tall reeds. Water temp has risen a bit due to abnormal heat wave. Shallow bite to likely die off in the next few weeks as the grass starts to die and oxygen lives in the weeds lowers. This short period of time is one of my favorites of the year.

Fall transition has the bass moved way up into cover. Pitched z craw into the thickest spots and isolated pockets. 3 rod twitch’s and if no bite. Reeled in and cast again. Reverse game of whack a mole. Heavy to x-heavy rod, once you feel the bite, set the hook HARD and don’t stop reeling until the fish is out of the cover. If they can wrap you up, the chance of the fish making it to the boat goes down drastically.
