Paralleling steeper rip rap banks with a swimbait got me a lot of bites the other day. Got some really solid fish too.

They were crushing the wiggle wart and dt6 along the rocks. Conditions were pretty clear and the fish were moving around looking for bait. Stop and go retrieve was the tickets

I first tried targeting the fish with a crankbait, no luck. Switched to the small underspin and instantly picked up a few fish, I think they were Keyed on bait.

Weather was pretty gloomy but the fish were active. I was throwing a swimbait and letting it hit bottom before starting my retrieve. Found a couple schools and caught just under a dozen bass. Drop shots and Carolina rigs work well here too.
