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!

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.

TechniqueHard Body SwimbaitsSeasonSummerStructureBouldersWas able to find a few good fish using the glide bait today. I only had a couple commit to the bait like this 3 pound smallie in the picture but I was using the glide in combination with my mega live to lift fish up and then cast back at them. Worked really well! Great Lake to throw bigger baits on.
