Smallmouth BassTechniqueDeep Diving Crankbaits (13'+)SeasonFallStructureDamTough post-front day on the Hill. Weather was perfect with sunny skies, temps in upper 60's and a nice breeze. Waters temps near the dam were 75-78 degrees. I could not find bait pushing back in the coves near the dam. I did get some smallmouth bass to bite on main-lake points with the Normal deep crank. Caught a really nice Spotted bass in the very back of Indian creek by the boat ramp.

Carolina Rig working as well. Had success fishing smallmouth under shad at 30+ foot with craw colored senko. Just follow the shad and they are there typically.
