Smallmouth BassTechniqueTubesSeasonSummerStructureOpen Water/BasinHad a blast out on the big pond today! Didnt catch many quality ones, but put the beatdown on a good number of them! Best bait was a 1/2oz 3.5” tube. Green pumpkin, and light melon were the two colors. Spybait also got some work in, along with a 3.3 swimmer. Wasn’t targeting really anything, just 5-10fow on sand flats. Long casts, and rotating between lures. I did sight fish a couple which was sweet too! Fun day!

Largemouth BassTechniqueWacky RigsSeasonSummerStructureDocksA recent cold front brought the St Clair River temps down just below 70, triggering the big bass to come in shallow around docks and seawalls at the entry point into Lake St Clair. Giving them a wacky rig presentation got them biting. Skipping and pitching a Yamamoto Senko with the Lew’s Pro SP is a breeze and can get your lure into those tight spots of cover where the bass are waiting to ambush their prey. We have another warm up coming thru that’s going to raise the water temps back up a bit, so I’ll let you know how the conditions change. FISH ON!👊💥🎣

I fished Lake St Clair after the BASS Open and MLF Invitational. The fish were very pressured and tough to get to bite. They seemed to relate to small transitions in the bottom and key on the baitfish. Early in the morning, they would bite up in the column on a small Great Lakes finesse hover minnow, but as the day went on, I switched to the 1/2oz Beast Coast OW Sniper and fish would eat the bait dragged on bottom
