Fished the docks like crazy. Pitched 4.5" rodents n got bites but nothing seemed to commit. So i dowsized to a chigger craw on a 2/0 , got nibbles but again nothing commiting. So i downsized again to a 1/8 oz jig and a gulp minnow and hooked up a pumpkinseed. Tried other docks but resulted in the same thing. The rest of the lake was a flooded jungle. Tons of healthy looking grass and other plants but no sign of fish

Here i found a picture of someones cottage. What you see in the water there is how the WHOLE lake looked. I think the lake is facing some sort of weed problem

On any other lake all i would look for is the thick weeds and grass, but at this lake the whole lake was literally filled with weeds submerged only a few inches below the surface. The depth averaged 7 feet and the water was super clear you could see the submerged weeds everywhere so thick they would get caught in my prop every other second unless i was gunning it. I found some small open pockets a pitched into them with different baits but nothing was hitting. It seemed as if the surrounding weeds were too thick for the fish to navigate to these open holes.

Yesterday went out to rice lake in southern ontario. The lake is known for its prime bass fishing. I heard it was weedy so i figured i try fishing weed edges or pitching into open holes in the weeds. However when i got there (should have taken a picture) i noticed the whole side of the lake where i launched was just one HUGE weed bed. Like maybe 200-300 acres of weeds. The lake was very shallow average 7ft. . The whole day i was slowly navigating through this lake of weeds. I tried pitching into what i thought were open holes but nothing. Tried top water , senkos , spinnerbaits , swimjigs , trigs , basically anything weedless but nothing. If a whole lake is thick and i mean thick weeds where would the bass be hiding ?

whats the lure weight on an extra heavy? Most heavy rods have a 2oz rating and cant imagine using anything heavier than 1.5oz-2oz for pitching or punching.

Cool responses lol , for me its running crankbaits along weed edges midday when the water warms up a bit. I find fall fishing for bass in ontario to be my most successful cuz they are more aggressive in the midday !

With september approaching and falling temperatures coming up what techniques catch you the most fish in the fall?

if thats even intended for actual use i would imagine using it for great whites or something bigger ...

Just purchased a few new swimjigs. Never really used them before but i imagine using them like i would spinnerbaits

The bay of quinte located on the north east end of lake ontario from belleville to picton produces good numbers of BIG LMB. Also any of the kawarthas produce good bass fishing for large and smallmouth bass. Rice lake is a very high pressured lake but mainly on walleye. Never had a problem pulling out the hawgs from rice.
