Shallow Largemouth SMOKES the Megabass Karashi!!! The dog days of summer are an excellent time to go extremely shallow, even if you think its too hot for bass to be back there. Certain bass, both largemouth AND spots, live shallow year round. These bank cruisers are very opportunistic feeders, and you never know what might be lurking in the shadows of your next cast…
