Smallmouth BassTechniqueSoft Body Swimbaits (Small/Medium)SeasonSummerStructureRock PileI was musky fishing in ultra clear water when I looked down and saw a nice chunky smallmouth. I grabbed my other rod and put the bait in front of its face and it slurped it up. It was a nice smallie, it was 16 1/2 inches.

I caught my personal best SM here several years back. I have fished it several times for bass, and I do not think this is a good bass lake. Fish the more shallow water near the state forest campground for LM. As this bay opens up in to the larger water, there's a ridge and then a sharp drop-off. I've had luck with wacky, neko and drop-shot here. Use natural colors and long casts as the water is VERY clear.
