Key in on flats and lips near ditches that have hydrilla have been key as numbers of fish are sliding up shallower and are feeding up. Run these baits through the grass and snap it out when you hang it up.

East side of north lake fishing the COG worm Texas rigged on 3/16 ounce weight. Edge of hyacinth where deeper water is close by. Dragging not vertical pulling was key to more bites. Slower the presentation the better.

The Croc O Gator swamp swimmer and the COG worm are producing a lot of bites in and near hydrilla on flats in 2-4 ft of water. I’m focusing on the flats that’s are adjacent to deeper ditches.

Flipping the big reed clumps and isolated reed clumps near ditches is producing some nice fish. 1/2 oz is plenty to get into those areas on the edges or just inside the reeds.

Slow drag on the bottom around hydrilla clumps in open water. Bass were not much of a chasing mood and preferred a slow presentation.

Flipping isolated reed patches near ditches on the flat was key to getting bit. 3/16 oz Texas rigged COG worm is the way to go.
