Another brutal day on the lake with 15 mph winds and estimated 30 mph wind gusts. Managed to catch 10-12 bass but tough conditions. Bass are still slow right now I couldn't get bit on a moving bait but they chewed a jig and Texas rig.

Fish are in a funk right now after spawning. I had plenty of bites but a few missed opportunities. Still fishing the same slow, efficient, and being patient. This time of the year you are one swing of the rod away from 4 or 5 pounder.

One of the most brutal days on the water. Fish are wanting to push up but the weather is wishy washy right now. I caught fish on a 1/2 oz Wrecker Baits Tarantula jig as well in my rotation. Typical spawning behavior. Fish the backs of pockets slowly and efficiently the weather has them locked jawed.

The morning bite is hot right now and definitely more productive than the afternoon bite. It’s difficult to beat a spinnerbait and a jig for targeting those bigger bites.
