Spawning smallmouth or in pre-spawn along flats that have points and drop offs. Been doing well dragging a drop shot with 6+ inch leader along the flats if they are not on bed. Not putting much action to the bait, but just slowly dragging it. Prefer leader is seaguar gold, vmc finesse neko size 2 hook.
