A simple VMC Tungsten Tubby jig and wax worms. I also ran the same jig and dead-stick with a minnow but the jigging produced more fish.

Got on the edge of some shallow flats and used a weighted wacky rig in 4'-7' of water. Fish were pretty aggressive towards the bait. White and Watermelon worked the best. Had some luck on green pumpkin also.

Submerged Vegetation
A storm went through earlier in the week bringing in a cold front with clear, sunny skies. The bass fishing almost came to a halt. The afternoon was spent focusing on the weed line in about 11 feet of water near drop offs. The submerged point on the west side was about the only place that held somewhat consistent numbers. We were able to catch bass fan casting a Bomber crankbait running right above the submerged weeds and also a Texas rigged Bandidto Bug right below the boat. The bass seemed to be roaming around that point as the bites came in bunches.

Some smallies were on beds and some staging. Many still roaming flats right on the edges of the break lines.

Fishing the weed edge was the key as most fish were spawning it was tough to find ones that were actively feeding. All in about 8-10 ft of water.

Water was still cold, but the bass were staging up shallow. Most fish were roaming around the docks. No big fish, but did catch plenty. Always good to get back on the water!

Got into some nice Crappies while fishing for Bass. They were caught swimming small hair jigs over weeds in 8-12'.
