Started on deep humps 15 -25’ and caught a bunch of smallmouth on a drop shot and hair jig including a couple of 4 pounders. Moved to the front 1/3 of points near spawn areas with good drop offs and caught small and largemouths on a Yo-Zuri jerkbait in elegy bone. Then we moved to the back of some bays and flipped up a bunch of small male largemouth on both finesse and regular jigs. Great day overall with over 50 fish but only a few nice ones

The Shadow Rap Deep Jerkbait in Ghost Shiner color was the ticket to a successful day on Lake George, NY. Largemouth, Smallmouth, and a Lake Trout were caught in 58-60 degree water temperature with a slight breeze from the Southeast. The most consistent bite pattern came from casting the jerkbait outside shallow water markers towards the main lake in 12-15 fow and near points from the main lake to the bays. Look for rock flats and boulders near drop offs and cast from shallow to deep for a bigger Bass bite. Smaller Black bass were caught in 4-6 fow using a Charlie Brewer Slider Grub with 1/8 oz Keitech tungsten jig head.
