Mid-day fishing was good on Town Lake (AKA Ladybird Lake). Bass are holding tight to cover and ambushing baitfish. Pitching and flipping into submerged vegetation and skipping jigs under low hanging trees was effective. Water clarity was about 5-6ft, so black and blue or junebug colored baits worked well. In clearer water by the Barton creek mouth, watermelon red and green pumpkin proved more effective.

I fished all the bridges mainly focusing on all the pilings and between them. I used a green pumpkin Senko on a dropshot set up with the weight 6” below the hook. Very slow bumps and movements I caught 32 bass like this.
