Mid-Summer patterns in effect, much of the bay has algae/dead weed growth. Obviously I will be looking for healthy green weeds.
Any tips on what baits might win it? Or where to look? I was thinking of starting in the shallows with topwater baits then as it gets hotter (gonna be over 100 degrees) switch up to either slop fishing or go deep with the jerkbaits and senkos.
Oh yeah to give you an idea -
Long Point Bay is shallow and weed choked. A massive bowl-shaped bay that goes to about 16 feet in the middle. Weeds are thicker than holy hell right now. There are certain areas with fishable docks but most docks/marinas are closed to fishing and/or filled with wayyy too much boat traffic on opener.
I had a blast out there! Fishing was tough locating the hogs but we still did pretty good on the bass nothing huge but i had a fun day on the water and thats what counts
