    Smallies are starting to feed up for the winter here in Central Wisconsin. You'll be able to find them sitting on top and near rock piles. Football jigs, Texas Rigged, Neg Rigged, anything small. Throw it pass the rock piles and slowly retrieve it back towards you. If you're hitting the Wisconsin River, red, black and yellow crank are working good. Find any deep holes and slowly work that area.
