Bass are starting to hit topwater moving into the post spawn. Water Temperatures around 68 - 70 degrees. Sitting up shallow behind the tamarack bushes seem to be holding the most fish. Also, flipping is a good option water seems to have stained from the large amount of run off from the mountain.

Ledges
We began fishing shallower water (10-12ft) and found nothing. We then moved to deeper water (30-40 ft) and found nothing. Eventually, we found a pocket of bass somewhere between the deeper and shallower water on a ledge. We didn't find many large fish, but we caught several largemouth dragging a dropshot up steep ledges. Move the bait extra slow and keep your line tight. Either a slow drag or slow turn of the handle. If you don't get bit in a few casts, move on. The fish we found were in a very specific 20 yard area with most being concentrated in a smaller area. A dropshot bait like the Netbait crush worm in the Jr size is a great option for a slow moving dropshot. You don't have to impart any action for it to look alive.

Crankbaits are working good off the ledges. Plus, the shaky head is a good choice too. Early morning, and late evening produces the best results at the moment.

Water is dropping rapidly. The bass have moved out and are aware of the levels. Suggest caution with navigation as the lake drops but the fish will smash a crankbait fished parallel along the rock banks and a football jig along the sandstone walls. These bass are much bigger and healthier than your average Sand Hollow catch so fish clean, keep your line and knots free of nicks. Tight lines!

Fishing deeper off the long rock points has been great. The bass are healthy, and still eating with the cooler water temperatures
