The Smallmouth spawn is over with a few largemouths still on beds. Shad spawn is in full swing and there are a number of baits that will produce vicious strikes. I had the best luck with the scrounger, Luck E Strike, with the 2.8" Keitech in Silver flash or Bluegill flash. boated a number of good fish on a popper, Yellow Majic in bone, as well as a few more on a Spro square-bill in Citrus Shad. Also stuck a couple using a Booyah spinner bait in white. Water temps were finally in the mid-seventies with about 18 to 24"s of clarity.
