My guests and I are catching them however we want, just need to locate them. Using my livescope to find the bait and then the bass. In the morning we are finding them with topwater baits (frogs, spooks, poppers and ploppers) offshore grass patches are holding the big ones if the blue gill are occupying the grass as well. If you dont want to use artificial baits, live bait (shiners) is of course catching them for us. Its a great time of year to be on my Skeeter Bass Boat. Preferably early, the afternoon is getting toasty. Keep that in mind when booking your action packed fishing trip with Capt. Blake and Fleetwood Bass Fishing.
