We had most success side scanning small schools of shad. Almost verticaly dropping a Neko rig on them. Almost never marked the fish we caught. almost always got the bite on the fall. no need to fish the bait on the bottom very long.

Was able to win a club derby on Saturday by fishing main and secondary points leading to spawning areas. The majority of my bigger bass came out of 6-8 ft. of water by throwing a Spro RkCrawler around the points. To cull up a very small keeper I found some fish out on Livescope and first drop with a damiki rigged ned bomb and caught my second biggest of the day. If y’all are fishing a lake similar to Norfork, a great way to approaching these lakes are fishing channel swing banks and long tapering points. Medium diving crankbaits and jigs are a must have when fishing highland reservoirs. Hopefully these tips will help you out on y’all’s next trip out on the water.

Finished our first Yak event of the year in 2nd by doing a few things caught a few throwing a wiggle wart up super shallow, caught two bigger fish on a swimbait and culled out all my smallest fish with a jig. They’re starting to pull up shallow and getting ready to spawn so get in as much fishing in as you can.

Large Mouth Bass starting to pull up and stage on secondary points. Water temp was 50-52 degrees on March 23rd. You will catch bass anywhere from 1 to 15 ft of water. The deep bite is all but over at this time. Crank baits, jigs have been working well for me. Good Luck!
