The large mouth were biting in and around the 12'-14' mark above the submerged vegetation. The real trick was finding the sandy areas amongst the vegetation and slowly dragging the Ned Bait along and popping it into and through the vegetation

Bass were in ~6' water, just inside the dense outer weeds. Once I found them I was able to catch multiple in the same area. A larger green/yellow tube worked best, and I rigged it weedless.

Good size 16-18' LM caught on the weed's edge using a green pumpkin craw tube. The lake association has had the weed cutter out. While the weeds are reduced, there are quite a few floating around right now.

Bass were shallow, in 2-5' of water. Caught all mine within 5 yards of shore. The weed cutter was out today cutting weeds out of the docks by the south shore. It'll be a little easier to fish the docks and shoreline there, and that'll be a good location when the trees provide shade. I caught bass with shakey head rigged with a XZone finesse worm, and wacky with a 6" XZone stick. reds, purples, and blues seemed to work. The sky was a bit overcast, so darker colors were needed.

Caught some fish today fishing shallow scattered weed clumps with a bladed jig. Green pumpkin bladed jig with black blade , paired with a black/blue trailer. Pretty stained water at the moment with the start of an algae bloom.

The homeowners association has completed their late spring weed removal which means the bass are either deep or up shallow under docks and trees. A wacky rig thrown in the shade is the ticket this time of year.
