Flipped some jigs around what was left for weeds. Finding green weeds defiantly helped hold fish. A lot of the weeds are dying fast. Water temp was around 55°-58° in most areas of the lake. Picked up a few on cranks in that 5'-6' of water range.

Caught a few early on a topwater early but spent most of the time throwing some hair around. Water was really warm a few weeks ago but these cool nights have dropped the water temp. Get out on those big flats, the smallmouth are roaming the shallows.

Fished a tourney out here and actually won it with 12lbs for 4 fish. We were on a really specific pattern all night. finding hard spots in slightly deeper water was defintley the key that night. We drug our dropshots about as slow as you could imagine to just get bites. And drug them around some deeper weed patches. We were mostly on a smallmouth deal, but did catch an occasional largemouth every once in a while. During the summer moths it is so important to slow down your baits, or you simply will just have a hard time getting bit.

Reeds
Several reeds on the south and west side of the lake, flipped jigs and texas rigs into the reeds. Fish were about 5' in the reed line and biting very light really had to feel a bite and then let the line go slack and then slowly tighten up to feel the fish 5-10 seconds later before setting the hook. Fished late in the day until dark.

With over cast conditions & slight breeze, pencil reeds produced many bites on dark colored buzzbaits and hollow body frogs. Fish that missed towpater usually could be converted by pitching a creature bait. Also slowing down and picking apart good areas flipping got additional fish. Docks and tree also produced some quality largemouth on frogs & jigs.
