I just made a huge post about how the Structure Bug produced huge numbers for me, so I'll say it again -

 

Rage Tail Structure Bug!

Frog and a squarebill were the ticket last night. A beaver and bladed jig have probably been the most consistent producers though. With all the high water up in the weeds I've caught more frog fish already this year than I normally get to catch in an entire season.

Yes, I agree I have been blowing it up on frogs!

Siebert Black/blue 3/8 oz arky 

With all the rain we've had, the banks are flooded.

 

I've been murdering on top water. Mainly Poppers for open water and frogs for the slop.... I've been using a brush hug to compliment this.

 

When they blow up on the bait and miss, i'll immediately throw out the brush hog and i'll connect with the fish again about 50% of the time.

 

Makes for a fun little combo.

Texas rigged Zoom trick worm watermelon red, 3/0 hook, 3/16th weight, this is my confidence bait, also the most productive.

Texas rigged zoom brush hog in watermelon or green pumpkin with at least a 3/8 oz worm weight.

Been catching my big fish on siebert 3/8 dredge brush in bama craw with rage craw....throwing arashi square bill picking up some fish too

Black 10inch powerworm.  it slays year round however so always tied on.

The last few weeks for me that best results came on a Honey Candy Cut R.

Either swimming or hopping along the bottom.

Didn't seem to make much difference.

Nothing. They have been getting the better of me lately.

Jigs

Bladed Jigs

Rage Craws

Rage Structure Bugs

Keitech Swing Impact Fats

Squarebills

Anything Finesse

a few poppers,aurora gold gunfish 95,zoom speed worm in junebug red

I got the most strikes from a jerkbait (rapala x-rap fished rather aggressively, jerked every other second followed by 2-3 seconds of pause), and my first crankbait fish (three hits, all lost) on a rapala DT6 fished through submerged weeds, med/slow retrieve, pausing for half a second when I detect bottom (whatever that means since I use a 7.1 reel lews laser mg). The moment I'd hit bottom, 3-4 seconds later I'd get bit.

 

Gonna hit up the lake again today after work and redeem myself!!!

I've been catching most of my good un's flipping lately... I started using punch rigs for the first time too, got one from seibert outdoors and I'll definitely be ordering more when I lose this one.

Siebert Arky jig, KVD square bill have been my go to lures the past couple of weeks

Same things I catch them on all year, for at least the last ten years.

I've been throwin so much topwater lately I dont know that Im giving anything else a real chance

It's hot here. Really hot. Texas rigged Zoom Finesse worm June Bug & Watermelon Red and Trick Worm June Bug. In the morning, top water, Chug Bug.

 

The Old School Basser...
 

1/4 oz swim jig in a Bluegill color  -  I make them myself, and for the last 3 weeks I can't keep fish off them.  Over 20 fish in that 3 weeks over 4 lbs, biggest was a 8 lb 8 oz

Spinnerbaits and more spinnerbaits

Same things I catch them on all year, for at least the last ten years.
