Travis Newville reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Ned Rigs technique and St. Croix Victory Spinning Rods on Lake Vermilion. Additional comments from this report: "Spring time in vermillion is so much fun. Lots of smallies in the 2-4 pound range. Throw a ned rig off of points or up shallow in bays. Having a good rod is so important if you don’t have one, I recommend getting one"

Focused on main channel points and rock piles. Fish were grouped up well and we caught several fish off each spot. Ned rigs caught the bulk of the fish but also picked up a few with swing heads and Rage Craws. Later in the evening a black popper also was a key player.
