Winds were 22+ out of the south and we decided that shore fishing in my buddy's backyard was best. And we caught 21 bass in about 10 hours, not bad for 100' of fishable shoreline during a full moon. bait color was actually watermelon seed.

While there are still plenty of fish spawning on the banks of lake Welsh I have had success targeting the fish going and coming from the bank instead. This has proved to be efficient as well since the grass continues to get thicker and thicker making it harder to reach the spawners. I have a three ponged approach that includes a 3/8oz bladed jig, a swimming worm and a Neko rig, and that is the exact order I use them in as well. If you can find a stretch of grass that that is sparse in that 3-8 foot range those baits will catch you a number of fish and big fish as well. Having deeper water nearby is also plus in making sure that you can go back down the same stretch later in the day and have the potential to fish for new fish that have moved in that zone.
