Early morning got out in the kayak around the Bullfrog marina. Got one smallie on a jackhammer with a hog farmer spunk shad. Caught a walleye off one of the docks on the same thing. However, most of the smallmouth caught throughout the week were on main lake points and secondary points with a ned rig. Areas with small chunk rock held plenty of fish, but slightly bigger fish were in deeper water (10’+) with bigger boulders. 1/8oz berkley half head jig with a riot baits baton did the damage.
