Lost Grove lake is fishing tough right now depending on the species you are targeting. Largemouth bass are probably the toughest to get to bite in these late summer conditions but there is a way to trick some into eating. For bass I have been flipping a 1/2 oz black and blue strike king hack attack flipping jig paired with a sapphire blue strike king rage craw as far into the flooded timber and bushes in about 8-12 ft of water. The majority of the bites in the shallower end of that range are coming at the bottom of the fall while in the deeper end of that range they are coming mid way down on the fall. I have found this is one of the only ways to target big fish in the lake. You’ll want to free spool the bait on the way down. This should yield better bites 2-5lb bass live in there. The hardest part is staying consistent with the technique and not giving up.

We found a lot of small males on the weed edges both wacky and Texas rigging. There were a few frog bites as well.

The fishing was tough, hard to find a quality bite. Had a derby win with 10#. Found most fish out in brush around 12-15 ft of water.

In the morning I found bass in 4/6 foot of water in heavy cover throwing a jig and burning it back looking for reaction strikes. In the afternoon I found large schools of fish in the very back of coves around heavy cover where the water was 5+ degrees warmer. I was able to sight fish with a weightless rage menace grub to pull some out.

The water temps are finally warming up and the bass are starting to move into the shallows. There are still some larger bass in the deep, submerged trees though. Dragging a 6.8 Keitech swimbait through the submerged trees in depths of 15 to 30 feet produced few bites but larger fish. The jerkbait was able to persuade some smaller bass in about 8 feet of water around trees. A wacky rig can produce bites from bass hanging tight to laydowns along the shore. Bass seem to be stacked on some logs. Water temps are much warmer in the very back of coves.
