Default Having Trouble Fishing a Small Philly Lake

Hey guys, I was wondering if you can help me out on a small shallow lake I've been fishing with little success. I live in Philly, the water temp is 80 right now, air temp ranging from 72-80. This lake is very shallow, the deepest water being 6-8 feet and its covered with thick vegetation throughout most of the lake.

I've tried throwing frogs over the weeds (lots of strikes, about 15 but I've yet to land one), pitching jigs in holes (only 2 small bass caught), spooks (best result, about 30 strikes, 8 bass, all small), and jerkbaits in open water areas (again no large bass).

I've heard that there are a lot of snakeheads in that area, maybe they've drastically reduced the largemouth populations. Anyways, thanks for your help.

Mike
