When I fish honeyoe in the summer I have been extremely successful with 2 techniques. When I arrive there and launch my kayak in the early morning I go right for a topwater frog and start throwing it around docks and other types of cover. I am usually very successful with this. As the morning topwater bite dies down I go out to 9-12 feet of water over heavy submerged weed beads and i throw ned rigs down in the weeds and the bass just hammer them.

Was targeting points and spawn staging areas with the jackhammer to cover water and have an amazing day! Caught 15 fish in less than 20 minutes, all would've been weighing fish if it were a tournament! Great day on Honeoye!!!

Bass were hanging on point in the weed edges and isolated weed clumps off the main edge. Casting past where the fish were holding and dragging it to them was the key to getting them to eat.

One of the best crank bait bites I’ve ever had. Absolutely choked it! Unfortunately it was the only bite of the day, aside from a hammer handle pickerel
