I like to chase the little hybrids while they're running the minnows on the surface in a canoe with ultralight tackle. But I think that is because its all I really have access to, thanks Matt (I wish I had a Bass Tracker, or some money for one). I have caught a few decent bass in the shade in the most populated parts of the lake during the heat of the day. Its kind of funny to paddle up to a spot right after some weekend warrior that almost swamped me in the main lake gets skunked, pulls away in frustration and sneak up on the bass that where waiting for the flies to buzz off. Aaahh, ha, ha, ha; the rewards of stealth and patience never seem to disappoint me! See ya on the lake and in the creeks.
