Shallow bite is still good.

jigs w/ custom colored skirts,and soft plastics in dirty water 3-6' deep

I caught 4 keepers on a jig, 3 keepers on a creature bait, 2 short largemouth, all released

buddy got a few bites too, he had 3 fat keepers and a handful of short bass

we easily had a 19+lb. 5 fish limit

fished the same cove the entire time.

special thanks to my fishing buddy who did a great job netting this 6lb lunker for me

that water is dingy for BSL, I could get used to that

Good deal, nice bass!

It seems like in the Ozark lakes when dealing with dirty water, you can either find cleaner water or go ahead and get to the really dirty stuff and power fish. It doesn't usually work too well to fish the normal baits in the normal ways in abnormally stained water.

Thanks. Great report. I've got to get out there.

did another short bass trip after work yesterday eve, fished 5-7:30, caught 7 largemouth , 5 were keeps .2 were short, keepers were all 3-4 pounders full of eggs, all released,

missed 4 bites in the beginning on the 1/2 oz jig so I switched from the 1/2 oz to a 3/8 and finally started hooking up,, could not get bit flipping or pitching the jig this time, so I tried swimming it and that's what got me bites. Fish were still shallow, 6' or less, some were tight to the bank, others were not. WT 62, carp were going berzerk! in the brush spawning
