Look for the more scattered grass in the morning and fish the Gambler big ez while the fish are up feeding. As the day goes on start fishing the burner worm on the hard grass edges and the submerged hydrilla clumps

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

Shallow early deep grass lines as the day progresses. Early morning 2-5 foot around hydrilla beds has been great as of late. As the day progresses, yo yo the lipless crank bait aling deeper grass lines along ditches and man made canals. Hanging the bait in the grass and piping out had produced the bite more often than not.

The fish are schooling around bait on the edge of deeper grass lines and points. The COG worm has been getting bit while Texas rigging it on a 1/16 oz epic tungsten with a spear point 5/0 hook. The deeper grass lines on the edges of the man made pits have been key areas for my clients. Fishing it slow almost dragging it like a caroling rig.

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.

The top water frog bite with the worm fishing mixed in has been fire lately. Target hydrilla wall edges next to deep water near the man made pits as the day progresses. The frog bite has been pretty good around the Lilly pad fields on the east side of the S canal.

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.
