Northern Pike
TechniqueHard JerkbaitsSeasonSummerStructureOpen Water/BasinWent out at 5AM for anything in the middle, I casted l out my Vision 110 fairly fair and did a fast jerking retrieve. It hit like a train, this was a pretty good mornin! It was also 57 degrees that mornin.

Smallmouth Bass
TechniqueDrop ShotSeasonSummerStructureRock PileI was able to catch a 3lb smallie first cast with a dropshot up against some rock/bolder piles. It hit immediately and I was able to get a few more on that structure. This time of year, where the water is hot, fish will stay shallow and against structure heavily. Try throwing a smaller dropshot, if they don’t want a smaller finesse worm, try sizing it up a bit more. Fish will bite it better.

Smallmouth Bass
TechniqueDrop ShotSeasonSummerStructurePointsMixed bag at Geneva. Got out 5am-10am. Majority of bites can on deep weedlines and hard spots in 10-18 FOW. Smallies were mostly hitting it on the fall and wanted it dead stuck. Threw the evo around in sparse grass in 6-9 FOW and landed a couple largies.

Walleye
TechniqueDrop ShotSeasonSummerStructureRock PileWent out to Geneva for 4 days, was able to get 2 walleyes, a bunch of largemouths, and a ton of rock bass. The walleyes were something I was watching, it seemed the ones that wanted to bite were shallow. Compared to the deep ones where they didn’t want to bite nor touch anything. The shallow guys were more active and aggressive, the deep guys were dormant. This is something to keep an eye out for as the season continues, good luck y’all!
