      Stumps

    Targetting pre-spawn largemouth around flooded stumps, laydowns, and rootballs that were close to deep and adjacent to spawning bays were key. Keeping an eye on your water temperature helped you gauge what areas were likely to have feeding bass, as the 50-degree watermark was important.
