Took the kayak out from 6 AM to 1030. Had never been on this lake. Was able to get on a pretty good pattern right away, throwing a swim jig around lay down wood . Most of those fish were pretty average size between one and 2 1/2 pounds. In the last hour I found some good grass in close proximity to deep water. The grass on this lake only grows out to about 6 foot. The wind was pretty heavy so I threw a bladed jig parallel to the weed edge in about 6 foot of water, and was able to catch several quality fish. The biggest being 4.77 pounds. there is also an algae bloom going on, so it is pretty green. dark colors would be the best option, although I was throwing a white chatterbait.

Lake was pretty well choked out with curly leaf pondweed. Walked the pad crashed over some open holes in the weeds to catch some pretty decent bass.

Found a few running a swim jig through the grass and using a fluke to clean house, caught a few eaters on a wacky rig around docks and laydowns as well.

We were able to pickup a few decent fish by burning swim jigs through the grass
