lack of stability

Hi Folks, Been a couple of weird weather days, Unstable weather with hot and humid to cooling down to raining, then really raining, to big beautiful blue skies. I know that in the fishing world that stable and consistent weather of several days is the best scenario. Ran my motorboat yesterday with a couple of long time guests and spin anglers. We had a lake up north all to ourselves. Water temperature was 68 degrees on the surface. We worked for the 5 bass we landed. # really nice 2.5lb to almost 3 lb. smallmouths and 2 smaller largemouth bass. We could not get the fish to eat a hard bait and there was nothing moving to the surface. I have found that post spawn bass can bw a bit tricky to locate and locate at times. After spawning there is a little bit of a lull in the action as the fish disperse to their summer haunts. We gave the fish rubber in a 5" green Senko with sparkle. The smallies were located on a har rocky bottom in about 10' of water while the largemouth were holding in a soft bottom with emerging weed beds. We covered some water and there were certainly some spots that just did not produce. All part of the game in figuring it out at times. Off to chase trout this morning. Water levels are up, but that might be the case for the summer. Im okay with it after last couple of years of dry weather. Remember to clean your gear and keep the non-native species at home. Have Fun, Willy
