Everyone overlooks this spot on their favorite lake! As we approach the middle of Summer, fish get harder to catch. If you’re fishing the same techniques in the same places, you’re probably starting to struggle. But there is something simple you can do to start catching fish again right away!
Its time to get off the bank! Forget the shoreline you fish every day and start focusing your attention on submerged vegetation. Weed lines and weed edges are the EASIEST place to catch fish in your lake and almost no one is targeting them!
Below you’ll find links to the exact baits and gear we use when targeting bass around grass in Summer. We’ve included our favorite sizes and colors for each lure to make it as simple as possible for you. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
