Use electronics to find the bait balls or follow the birds. Bass were actively schooled and feeding on baitfish in coves and secondary points. Lots of success with soft body swimbaits worked at slow to medium speed at lower depths.

The spawn seems to be running late this year. By this time, we're usually in post-spawn, but some bass were still on beds or staging points. The most effective method of the day was pitching jigs into brush and reeds. Craws seemed to get the most aggressive bites. Also had a chance to test out the new Shimano Mastiff line in 16lb. I had one setup spooled for lipless cranks and one setup with a braid to fluoro leader. The line casts very smoothly and I did not have any issues with line twist, even when casting directly into the wind. The abrasion resistance was very good, even after a few catches the line was fully intact with no kinks or fraying.
