Article 34 – PicturesI would like to thank everyone for taking the time to read and save all the 33 Articles for future reference. I would like to end the series with some pictures from those that would like to post and tell what structure you and or your partner caught your fish fish off of. - Structure or Cover – Depth – Technique – Bait. We may see a pattern develop here if enough pictures with write-ups are posted which will tell us which of the areas are most productive. Please feel free to post more than once as you go down the line up of Structure/Cover and dig out those pictures. Those that kept a Ledger, please help us out here and give more information. Structure and Cover List:The Dam – River Slam – Inside Bends – Roadbeds – Bridges and Embankments – Submerged Railroads – Big Flats – Dog Leg Creeks – Marinas – Drains and Culverts – Remote Areas – Deep Coves – Outside Bends – Fence Lines – Pond Levees – House Foundations – Boat Houses – Funnel Points – Cove Blockers – Humps and Islands – Heavy Cover – Deep Grass – Controlled Drifts – Ledges – Windy or Calm – Rubble Piles – Best Pattern – Spinner Bait Fish – Bass At Night – Suspended Bass – Top Water. Corner of Dams - I will start us off here with pictures of Bass caught off the corner of the Dams on several lakes by my partners and I over the years. All fish were caught during the spawn either on a jig or senko in 5 to 12 ft of water. Jigs were Crayfish and used a Watermelon Red Senko on a TX-Rig. Some of these fish were staging along the Dam where the dirt meets the rocks from December to March. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2020/07/full-28031-59634-11_6_10_roberts_bdc_craw_1.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2020/07/full-28031-59635-amistad_8.5_9_12.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2020/07/full-28031-59636-don_6.0.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2020/07/full-28031-59637-falcon_11.6_mike_2019.jpg)

Thanks guys. Hoping to see some fish that have been caught on these structures besides mine. You don't have to follow any order; just pick the structure or cover you caught them on and tell us about your great day on the water.

The fish below was caught at Lake Whitney in August. It had been really hot and clear, but this day was cooler and cloudy so we hit the lake. Bass was caught off of a river slam. Boat was positioned in 20-25 FOW slinging a C-Rig up to 15-18 FOW targeting some trees and brush or debris. C-Rig had a North Texas Custom Baits 6" Brush Hog in Light Watermelon and craw scent added to it. The spot I was fishing was on a Super Chip from Don, but honestly I had fished that spot for years and caught smaller fish. By backing off and fishing the deeper water per the instructions, I caught this quality fish and continue to catch better quality fish. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2020/07/full-107507-60163-bigfish_abby.jpg)
It's only a good cast if you catch a fish... Personal Best: 11.62 lbs

It’s funny how differently those last 2 bass are colored. My brother had a place on the Guadalupe River outside Victoria. Would’ve never thought there would be a bass that size in that river.
