Trip Summary

Summer patterns are locking in beautifully! Surface water temperatures have climbed right into the mid-60s, and the fish are responding by stacking up heavy in the greenery. Right now, we are finding the most active fish heavily associated with the weed beds in depths less than 20 feet. The standout presentation lately has been a classic slip bobber setup. It is keeping our baits precisely in the strike zone just above the weed tops without constantly snagging. It’s a visual, exciting bite that is absolutely perfect for both seasoned anglers and families or beginners looking to see that bobber drop! We have open dates coming up, so grab your spot on the boat and let's get out on the water!
