Probably the best trip I have ever had out on Mille Lacs. Virtually all of the fish were post spawn, but I did catch one really late spawner that weighed in at 4.23lbs. I caught her on a shallow point in about 3ft of water. Also caught a bunch of fish throwing crankbaits on the slightly deeper sides of reefs. Catching smallmouth on a DT6 is truly addicting, so definitely give it a try. Was catching majority of my fish in 6-10ft.
