Hit the home waters for a quick morning bite. Found some largemouth around dock, but the best bite was in the submerged weed flats in about 5-8 ft of water using swimjigs. Lots of small pike too, but the larger bass were feeding in the same areas.

Find the nice points and humps and look for bright green coon tail, it was hard to find it but fish were loaded on those spots.

Caught a handful of walleyes out on the humps, there were schools of 3-4 swimming in a group, a simple cast at them with a jerk bait would get them fired up.

Walking and plopper style top waters worked well for a good mixed bag of smallmouth and largemouth. Best action along inside edge of weeds in 2-4’ during morning hours until around 9:00.

Any pads within a foot of a dock is good. Target shade lines, as well as thicker and deeper pads.
