SPRING BASSIN HAS BEGUN 🔥💪🏼 The Largemouth Bass here in Oakland county are starting to move to shallow canals/bays with this warm weather. The bite is only going to get better every day 😎

Focus on ledges and grass lines in the Fall. Big swim baits, big spinners, jerk baits and glide baits will for sure land you some Northerns. They are hanging tight to the bottom but are launching after the bait when working it mid column. Good luck!

In summer, get into the tighter areas and you can always find fish skipping under docks. Any natural colored senko or compact jig.

Working the glide bait over ledges. Fast retrieval seemed to work better than slow. I found my best luck with the Baby Bass color.

I was fishing ledges and weed patches with the slow sinking glide bait. Fishing it right over the weeds and they would smash it while I was slowly retrieving it to the boat!
