Fishing Through Bad Tides
While ultra-high water levels may provide an angler with too many cover options to throw at in the course of a day, tides that go out more than usual should work to concentrate the fish. That would seem to give the angler an advantage, and often does; but on the other hand, sometimes it prevents you from getting to where they live. #FBF

Target Areas with Ish Monroe
"Look for the first drop off that is just off the spawning flat or that first channel bend that leads to the spawning flat. These are staging areas for the pre and post spawn fish.

When fishing dense mats of vegetation, or in vast expanses of lily pads, you’ll want to use a hollow-bodied frog to properly target the bass hiding underneath these canopies. These baits are nearly impossible to snag and bass will be looking to feed upwards when buried in these mats. Also many of these areas you’ll be fishing will have dense vegetation, so you’ll need a frog that has a large profile as this will displace the matted vegetation as you work it across the top of it.
