Fishing up the river in the cowan creek area fish were dirt shallow ambushing shad in a shallow stump flat. The buzz bait was the ticket.

LMB and Spotted bass can be found in creek channels on wood, and docks. Moving baits such as spinner baits chatter baits and swimbaits work well for aggressive fish, flipping when the bite gets tough.

Brush Piles
I had a blast fishing small swimbaits on Lake Weiss for the Hobie Bass Open Series. I had a bunch of success up shallow and over brush piles with a smeltinator jig head paired with the royal bluegill spark shad from megabass. Cast up along structure or the brushline and slow roll that little swimbait and you will be hooking into some fiesty largies and spots!

Shad
I fished main lake river channel ledges that had stumps on the top side using the X-15 fishing anywhere from 10-18’ deep near shad. Most fish were aggressive we probably caught 75-80 fish on the day.
