Went to a local lake last Sunday. Up here in Minnesota, it can get chilly this time of year but last weekend, temps were near 70 and the water temperature was still at 67 degrees. Even so, the weeds in this lake are dying off in a big way. There was little action in the morning but around 4 in the afternoon, the bass began to take a frog pattern off the top in anywhere from two to five feet of water. I used two different patterns with about equal numbers of strikes on both. I missed a bunch but still managed to catch and release a dozen or so. I thought the water temps needed to be much cooler in order to see those weeds die back but I guess the shorter day light must trigger the weeds to thin out. Now, you get reach water that was too weed choked to fish just a couple of weeks ago. I never heard or saw a live frog last Sunday but enough bass were willing to be fooled to make it a very satisfying afternoon.
