    Burn tandem willow blade spinnerbaits (or willow/Colorado combo) with 3"-5" swimbait trailers right on or just below the surface. Fast as you can reel and still keep it in the water. Create the surface wake. Around & over the weeds. Water from 1' - 5' deep. The smashes are intense! Like fishing topwater. A little wind helps.

    It's been a few weeks since I was there and it was a little slow then (in fact I've only had one 10 fish or more day this year), but that was before the monsoon storms started. The bite should have improved significantly, especially while the storms are building. I talked to two guys last time out that caught a couple decent largemouth too, something I've never done in 30 years of fishing that lake.

    Good assessment, my buddy and I were there 4 days last week. It was pretty windy in the afternoons which somewhat limited what we could do, but the mornings were on fire, and we still caught fish in the afternoons, just not where we really wanted to be. As mentioned, shad nearly everywhere, and the topwater bite was good in the mornings until 9-10:00 when the winds got going. Fish are very healthy. I kept a limit of 1-1/2 pounders the last day for dinner and half of them still had eggs.
