If you can find shaded vegetation you’re in luck. During the summer months vegetation becomes thick and the bass love to hang tight to it. I found luck with slow worked jigs in the shaded vegetation.

Fished lures off the edges of rocky drop offs. Some fish were still on beds while others were cruising along the edge. Fish were scattered and just had to keep fishing along the same structure to pick them up.
