We caught most fish on the drop shot roboworm. Several were also caught on the yamamoto grub in the baby bass color . A 3/8ths Bass Pro Shop spinnerbait in white added to the days catch.

Water conditions were hot, and water clarity was nil. Got ~3" of rain the day before and the lake was really high. There were a number of docks that were nearly submerged or completely submerged. There were a lot of wake boats and pleasure craft running as well. Caught one keeper on a chatterbait somewhat early and then caught two good ones off of docks right at their ladders in about 5' of water with a wacky rig. Had a LOT of small fish during the night though. Some on wacky, some on jerkbait, some on chatterbaits. Our weight was 7.7lbs, with the bigger bass being 3.63lbs. Winning weights were 9lbs to 10lbs, and big bass was 3.71lbs.

The weather was overcast and calm winds. Fish activity was slow. The fish wanted a large presentation. putting on two flat worms did the trick. One green and the other black.

The fish were very active but would not bite a mving bait such as a spinnerbait , rattle trap or jerk bait. The ned produced oover thirty fish with seven over the 14 inch minimum length. That was in a 4hr period. Fish that were active were in the 6-8 ft depth range with lots f weeds.

After several days of rain, I knew the bite would be slow especially in the middle of the day. I haven't ever fished a Neko rig before but it seemed to be what I should try. I caught a 15 in bass out of a hole in the weeds in about 6 ft of water. It ended up being the only fish I caught even after going back through that same area with a couple different baits. Time was short so I didn't fish any longer. At least I wasn't skunked.

Fish were holding to shade early in the evening, but water temps in the mid 80's made them pretty lethargic. Lots of half hearted hits on wacky worms, t-rigged stick baits but no quality fish until the sun started going down. Once the sun was down, top water prop baits and poppers started firing off really well and caught some quality fish.
