Fishing 0-5 feet put numerous largemouth in the boat. Most fish hit directly off shore in less than 1 foot of water. Anything out deeper would typically smack the spinnerbait as it ticked the grass tops. Be aware though as numerous large muskies would also chase not only the bait but the fish when you caught them.

Bluegill

These fish were crashing the banks eating frogs and bluegill under the lily pads. Concentrate on the lilypads that had milfoil mixed under it and leave the frog hang in the openings of the pads. A LOT of em missed it or blew it up under the pad. Super fun! New video is up on BE the Fish YouTube channel showing exactly what was talked about above.

Threw the wacky rig all morning producing plenty of solid bites. Lost all but this one fish into the weeds on the south end of the lake, but the wacky rig never disappoints, especially on this lake.
