Dragging a LS Lures 3/4 oz Mop living rubber football jig on the north Side of the lake produced multiple 3+ pound bass. Finding weedlines on side imaging allowed me to key in on were the bass were setting up on.

Shad
In the summer these fish hang tight to vegetation and hide to ambush prey. The Main forage on this lake is shad. I recommend slow retrieving a swim bait in or across the grass.
