Texas Rig worms and creature baits did well on this heavily pressured body of water. The lake is very high and moving into post spawn conditions. There is a very large amount of fry us the water and lots of bluegill moving around. The bass have a large amount of bait fish to eat so fishing was a lil slower then last few weeks. Had to put in a little more work. Texas rig worms from Roboworms (main star of the show), curly tail/ribbon tail, and creature baits or crazy leg craws did fair as well. Average catches came in 6ft -12ft of water. Slow down, pitch into as many bushes and lay downs as possible, there is a lot and I mean A LOT of brush and submerged trees and every tree could hold a beast or at least hungry buck bass, but again there is tons of fry and bait fish stirring. Combo that with strange weather over last few days the bass are a bit more tight lip’d but catchable. Top water is just around the corner!

Fish are definitely in the post spawn funk. Had to keep changing with the wind but was able to get a few good ones.

We caught over 20 bass all day on spinnerbaits. They bit well before dawn and again at noon onwards. Even when the wind was nonexistent. We could not catch any pitching fish. That was strange. This shallow pattern will change soon enough to summer structure fishing. Enjoy while you can.
