I caught 41 bass, a perch and a rainbow. Most of the bass were dinks, but I got a few better fish up to 15". The bigger fish were quite deep. The largest was probably a good 50 feet out in about 12 feet of water. Most came on a 3" grub on a 1/16th ounce jig fished slowly over the bottom, or on a dropshot. A 3" wacky rigged stick bait and a 2.5" reaper did best on that rig. That water is so clear, I think that the bass bed in deeper water at Weston. I'm thinking they've pretty well finished spawning overall. I had some fun catching dinks on poppers for a little bit before the storms came in again. I also had a lot of hits with leech patterns fished on a sinking line in 16-18' of water over some weed beds, but I kept missing them and decided chasing bass was more productive. Overall, a pretty fun time for the 2 1/2 hours I got to fish before the crazy thunderstorms slammed me.
