    Look for smallmouth beds in 1’-5’ of water in sandy or rocky areas with slow moving water. Pitch a Texas rigged Big Bite Baits Swimming Mama on to the bed with a 3/8 oz bullet weight. Allow it to sink and sit on the bed. Give it a couple twitches, and allow it to sit again. Continues this for 30 seconds or so, and recast if you don’t get a fish. You should be able to catch a lot this time of year off of beds.

    Lake was surprisingly very clear with the recent rain. Fish were on beds but if they saw you... game over. Stealth was the name of the game today.

    Fish are in full Spawn. This large mouth was under a log on a bed. Very aggressive strike. Caught other small mouth on open beds where their bite was much more subtle and they were a lot more skitterish.
