For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Parking is often the real limit rather than the bank itself. Some ground is open by custom rather than by right, so tread carefully. Oknoname 063020 Reservoir sits 1.1 miles off and takes the overflow.
