Notes
I tried using shad minnow by Zoom with a small lead head jig and even tried spinner by fox and no
hits. Finally on Coot's point using Rapala Mini shad retrieving along the bank by the swimming area I almost had a 12" bass. And to the left of Coot's Point about 50 ft, I almost had a 16" LMB.
The tip is to look for jumping bass feeding on shad or minnow and cast just pass where the fish jump.
