This was my regional’s tournament to make it to state. The bass where biting very slowly so most of the time we either had craw, a jdm plastic my partner calls it (poop), and a dark sleeper just dragging on the bottom. Structure wise it was a mix of weed and rock piles. Drop shot works as well

Found a few fish throwing a flapping frog in the matted grassed. Bite was much better in the morning. Throwing Swim jigs up to the bank produced some bites as well.

There were typically more than one on each dock and because the water had algae bloom, you had to cast in about 5 times before they’d strike. I had better success weightless and with patience. Worked around the wood on the bank too.

I wouldn't recommend going during the algae bloom. We decide to focus on docks for the day. A black and blue jig followed with a weightless yum dinger did the trick. A punch rig or grass jig will also work in the 5-6 foot weeds.

22+ lb bag the day after Howies tournament. Jackhammer/Zako was primary bait but did catch fish on weightless fluke, T-rig and throwbacks with a Senko.

First time out here. Generally good conditions for the day, overcast with a light breeze. The bridges connecting the lakes are low where if you have rods greater than 6.5’ sticking upright; it’ll grind against the wood…ask me how I know 😂 Other than that, not many bites today; but when I did, it was big! Caught a big Smallmouth with a DT10 along the river current towards the bridge, but it got loose as I grabbed the net. Very nice bronzeback! Otherwise, most of the day was spent along the drop off line (which also generally followed along the matted vegetation) that resulted in several well-fed northerns coming off the jackhammers! Water clarity was low and had a ton of floating debris, so white and chartreuse worked well for us today.

Humps
Using good mapping of the lake and your electronics to find rocky humps. I've caught good size largemouth around the rock structures using a 5" wacky rigged senko on a dropshot. I like to use an Arsenal Fishing silicone band when hooking wacky still with this presentation, helps keep the worm positioned right. Dragging the dropshot will result in some big fish!
