Fished the afternoon till close, got largemouth to 7# Dropshot, crawdads, potbellied shads, flashtrix, Robo zipper grubs all catching bass right now.
The dropshot can produce in 1 ft of water all the way out to 25ft.
Grubs working on bed fish along the banks and back of coves, still good vis.
Fly lined flashtrix and atomic pot bellied shads are killer right now on those fish that are just free swimmer's that arn't holding on anything but are running the banks.

Stripers are starting to get thicker on the main lake points, had some good schools come up on the ripbait and buck tails, another trout plant could bring the bigger models out to play.
Few sighting of shad, not going to talk about that just yet!

Hey Dave - How high up are you putting the hook on your drop shot rigs from the sinker? Seems like with all the weeds now, its kinda tough to fish them.
