Here at Ming, the boaters and swimmers have made it difficult for the fish to set up. There are many grass patches around the lake. Keitechs, drop shot and small frogs would be the best option to score a bite. Topwater is still an option during the early hours of morning. The bluegill action remains the best bet here. It’s an effortless bluegill bite with any live worm on drop shot or under a bobber.
