Saginaw bay. Fished wigwam bay water was about 2’ lower than normal. Bass were in shallow Cruising the flats in the early morning. As the sun came up they moved to isolated reeds with a gravel bottom. That was the key. Did see a lot of empty beds with a few bass still on beds also. 3/8oz war eagle spinner bait with a largo shad as a trailer toss it up reel it through and hold on. The under spin with the keitech sun-gill was another hot bait today was rotating them all day. Prolly boated around 40 bass most were all 3lb fish, along with some pike and bowfin. The bay is such a underrated large mouth fishery!
