Smallmouth Bass
TechniqueNed RigsSeasonSpring (Pre-Spawn)StructureRock PileThere was still Ice in part of the lake but the current was breaking it up enough to fish. Was catching smallmouth on rock in water from 37-40 degrees from being warmed by the sun. Still very cold and the fish were lazy and you had to work a ned rig extremely slow to get bites. The Molix tail spinner got a few bites but was also working that very slow. Water was very clear and the two best ned rig colors were mudbug and "the dream."
