Fish were just off the flats on the breaks from the colder nights before the outing, was using live scope to locate and cast at the weed edge where I saw fish. Fish were eating on the fall and were very challenging to catch

8-12 feet of water on the weedline. Need to be around schools of sunnies on this lake it seems. Most of the bass were relating to bait, didn't seem to matter about how thick the weeds were. Drop shot leader length 10-14 inches. Shaking it in place seemed to work best

Fish were really scattered around the lake, we could only pull one or two off of each spot. It was a junk fishing kind of night, caught some on jigs, drop shots, ned and some moving baits at the end of the night like a DT and chatter bait!

Ended up n Waverly after finding other area boat ramps too shallow to launch. Found large amount of scatttered rocks throughout lake using Side VU. Caught several fish on 1/8 ounce Jigs (Berkley Half Head in Black) and 4-inch and 5-inch (trimmed) PowerBait and PB Maxscent The General rigged Ned Style. Straight Fluoro seems to be ticket to get more bites that braid/fluoro combo

Flipping coontail clumps in 8-12' of water on the south east shore of the lake with a jig was very productive. The weeds were healthy, but sparse as in there were large gaps between the clumps of coontail. Some clumps could get multiple bites. Texas rigged rage bugs also got bites, but the jig was most effective.

Crawfish
Fished along the weed lines. Occasionally throwing the sleeper craw right into the submerged grass and popping it out will trigger a bite. For the times that sleeper craw was not working I switched to a more finesse style. Something like a neko or dropshot slowly dragging on the bottom.
