Fished East Jefferson and targeted mostly docks once the sun got up. Skipped swim jigs and weightless stick worms up under the docks in shaded areas to produce most of my bites. Good pattern for not only this lake but most lakes throughout the summer months when the heat and sun come into play.

Shallow docks & wood with grass around them, black & brown hollow body frogs were the main deal, but BassTEK jigs also scored some good fish. Presence of bluegills and un slimy grass seemed to help

The bass spawn was on over Memorial Day weekend with the bigger fish related to the shallow spawning flats on inside weed edges close to gravel, rocks, and boulders. The bigger fish came on a wacky senko on green pumpkin with red flake and got several also on the green fish swim jig in a bluegill imitation and a Keitech 4 inch bluegill flash trailer. Several smaller fish were caught on a wake bait and also whopper plopper70 in bone.
