There’s no rules to this. Only suggestions. Hunted down a nice hybrid fishing eddies adjacent to white water on the river. The water was dirty so I chose a chatterbait. Not your typical “striped bass family” of baits. Predators just need to “see” the presentation. Sometimes vibration helps. . Wading is a form of bank fishing and can be extremely productive right now. If you’ve got hybrids around you go give em a shot. They’re heating up while the other black bass species can be difficult this time of the year. This almost 22” 4 1/2 pounder was a pb for me. Man do they fight! Especially in the current. Tight lines! 🎣

Caught a handful of pond bass on the minimax the other day in span of 100 degree days we had. Water temp is up and so is the bass’ metabolism.
