Green Pumpkin and blue flake

Green pumpkin and orange 

Shad colored

It’s on the border of NC/VA. The lake has a dam on each end and it has a lot of grass with clear water in the shallows. It is used to maintain the water level between Lake Gaston and Kerr Reservoir. When they run current between the dams they say the fishing is awesome but most of the times the dams are closed. There are a couple of islands with waterways between them than can get shallow. Seems to be a good mix of Largemouth bass and spotted bass.  

Nice job

You like dirt bike riding. 

I fish both but these fish came off hydrilla in the well known Belmont Bay of the Potomac. 

Nice one!

I want to try to flip the heavily matted grass on the Potomac River when we get to July and August.  I hear that some use  a heavy weight like an ounce or ounce and half on their soft plastics. I plan on using the gremlins, goats and crawz.  So is the theory you want the heavy presentation to bust thru the grass straight to the bottom and not get hung up? Why wouldn’t you want to slowly work the bait thru the grass? Are you only looking for an reaction bite?

I have been known to get on my knees when no one is looking.  👁️

nice !

That’s a nice one. What did you catch it on?
