The 1st of May is when this starts working the best. Around any laydowns or grass (either submerged or visible grass in the water). Also throwing a Spro Bronzeye Frog in the killer gill color around the same kind of vegetation.

Sunny, 79* Full Moon weekend. Winds light and variable. Caught some awesome smallmouth bass on bullshads and custom dreamsmasher shallow running crankbaits from E&H Lures in Watauga Tennessee.

Shad
Catching both largemouth and smallmouth bass by targeting main lake rock bluff channel swing banks and points using a Rapala DT-10 crankbait in the 8 to 10ft range focusing on chunk rock transitions on the bluff and points. The DT-10 color that I chose today was caribbean shad due to the fact that the water color on the main lake had a slight stain to it due to recent rain events and the natural draw down of the lake.

The water level and water temps are falling and we are targeting largemouth bass that are chasing threadfin shad on shallow main lake flats and around creek mouths using a 1/2 ounce Strike King red eyed shad.
