Rip Rap
Smallmouth and Largemouth are up tight to the rip/rap shorelines with deep water near by. Slow dragging and hopping jigs with a craw trailer have been producing during the day. Isolated boulders/structure has been key to finding larger fish! Try also throwing a spinnerbait with copper blades during the early morning/evening periods.
