Inside Edge Largemouths
Largemouths love edges, and the most desirable fish I catch during the dog days come from shallow cover within close range to shore - the inner edge.
Early and late in the day, I frequently see movements to the extreme shallows where largemouths utilize the protective heavy cover and weed growth as ambush points. These areas are the open space between shoreline and the inner edge of cover.
Inside edges are from the weed tops, the centralized location of the emergent vegetation, to edge of the shoreline. Largemouths are expertly shallow water predators who flock to these areas for feeding under low light conditions and when other predator species are roaming on the outer edge. Nighttime is best in these locations, where big bass feed and strike with reckless abandon.
Inner edges can be wood or weed oriented - emergent or submergent too. Probing through the shallows and casting or flipping to all targets and open pockets in between weed cover is the name of this game, and it'll catch loads of largemouths daytime and nighttime.
