I fish mostly pads. In summer months I’m looking for deeper pads in 4’+ water and listen for bluegill. If they are not making that sucking noise I’ll move through that area fairly quickly. Once I catch a fish or hear bluegill I’ll slow down and fish the area more thoroughly. Once I catch one I’ll usually catch more. Over time I’ve discovered difficult to get to deeper holes back in the pads that they seem to hold in. The bass get under the thick pads for protection from the sun and to feed on bluegill. I throw a frog a lot but my go to the last 3 years has been a 4.5” swimbait with 1/8 oz pegged bullet weight on 20# fluorocarbon. Many come on outside edges of pads but sometimes I throw a larger swimbait with no weight deep in the pads on 50# braid. Before I got hooked on swimbait I mostly threw a swim jig. Near the mouths of canals is also a great spot. A lot of guys fish the canals with small worms with success. I choose not to fish main canals because of boat traffic and potential of accident. I do fish some of the canals further back where there is not as much traffic

nice fish...6.10...you're on a roll...7 pounder next week.
That was a good day. I always liked overcast days with a light breeze. What color swimbait ?
Same ol’ Bruised Copper
@@rustyreidfishing3334 That's a good one.
Hey rusty I've only fished hernando a few time and not to much luck, when you pick a spot what do you look for and what do you use
