Best Cattail Techniques - 04/04/21 12:15 AM
Have a small lake near me that is almost completely lined with cattails/reeds. I'm not sure of the exact species, but they are thick and look to me like an endless desert of cattails. Love to hear your best techniques for dissecting these type habitats and the baits you've had best luck with. I've caught SOME decent fish flipping on the edges, a few topwater outside, but I haven't cracked the secret code yet. I feel like the big ones are living inside the actual plant/root mass, but what ideas do you have for penetrating that. It is thick and getting hung up is a frequent occurrence, along with your bait never actually getting down past the stalks. Thanks.
