Mid summer mornings with no wind look for reefs that top out at 5’-10’. Try surface baits, toss them out on the reef tops and slowly pop them back to the boat. When the smally hits wait a couple seconds before setting the hook. I like to use braid and tie 5' - 8' of mono to it, it acts like a shock absorber. Good luck.

Water Temperature
70°
Tough smallmouth bite. Fished Kabetogama from 6/7 through 6/11. Water temps started out at 70 degrees, creeped up to 74 degrees, then a cold front moved in and knocked the water temps down to 65 degrees. The most successful technique was cranking squarebills over shallow rocks near islands. Topwater poppers worked well at times. I believe the key was to make noise, vibration or use bright colors due to low water clarity.
