Pitching under docks with a flipping jig.Specifically docks with wooden post in 4-6 feet of seemed hold the most fish.Also got a couple on a covert spinnerbait and a buzzbait.

For some reason the lake was being very stingy to me on a hot early fall day. Decided to skip a wacky rig around some docks in Minney and plunked off a couple good bites including a 5 1/2. Wacky rig is a good way to get some bites and not just small ones too.

Won a little youth derby out on Okoboji this weekend. Fish were pretty keyed in on bluegill so it was a little tricky getting them to bite. Caught some nice ones on the squarebill running it outside the docks. Really focused on the individual docks rather than the giant marinas. Had like 15 fish over 3 and a half pounds this weekend.

Fishing under docks with Jig and Wacky rig and then down the front and sides with a crankbait. Fishing was really slow but found more bites doing that than anything else.
