During this mid-summer trip, fished a variety of cover and structure with 5" hula grubs, weighted, wacky rigged senkos and lipless crankbaits. Caught a mix of largemouth and smallmouth bass mostly located on the edge of cabbage patches in 8' to 14' of water on rocky points until mid day. Moved to deeper rock piles and ledges (15'+) through the afternoon with the hula grub, lipless crankbait and blade bait each fished with a yo-yo type retrieve. Covered lots of water and connected with a number of bass for a great day on the lake.

Fishing a jig head minnow over isolated boulders close to schools of perch in 25-45 feet of water was key for catching above average size smallmouth.
