I threw nothing but topwater baits (frog and buzzbait) because the heavy grass extends to within 6” of the surface and makes anything swimming or crawling subsurface virtually impossible.
Saturday afternoon after the rain I decided to go pad crashing. It was hot and humid so I only fished from 1-5.
Caught some, missed some and lost some. That’s frogging in the pads.

This morning I was paddling at 5 and thew a buzzbait in the open pockets of water and then frogged after the sun came up.
It was fun as always and I managed a few decent ones too.

Nice report and pics, your smashing them on top.

Nothing like a top water explosion.

This is an old school Cavitron buzzbait. Great buzzbait still today and has that unique squeak that makes them so good.
