Rip Rap
Cranking riprap with a Spro Rock Crawler in 6-10 of water brought a couple of bites around midday. The water was slightly stained and 44-46 degrees on the main lake. We also had a couple bites flipping a 5/8 ounce Cage Feider jig on outside channel swings in 3-5 feet of water. The key was finding near vertical laydowns.

Was able to catch a few nice largemouth hanging tight to laydowns. Flipped a bluegill colored jig with a rage craw trailer rigged sideways. Where there were open shorelines a small, white jerk bait worked on the smallmouth.
