Smallmouth BassTechniqueDrop ShotSeasonSummerStructureOpen Water/BasinFished here from 7 AM to 3 PM. Fishing was tough, we only caught one smallmouth, but numerous largemouth. Seems that most were on the drop off around 9 to 12 foot. Very little wind in the morning, so slow baits were the most effective. The wind really picked up in the afternoon and then faster baits became more productive.
