There’s nothing wrong with downsizing your presentation in the fall! The baby rage craw came through on this one and I highly recommend it!

Caught a fish off of a bed on a jig. On little lakes like these, look for pockets in reeds and light patches in between reeds. I flipped a jig in and pulled this guy out!

Caught this on a top water frog at Mud Lake. There is a pocket of lily pads that is especially fruitful in post-spawn spring. Scum frogs work best in my experience!

I caught this many years ago at Mud Lake. Most people don’t know about this hidden gem of a lake, but if you can, fish it and be sure to use a Swimbait! Net bait is some of my favorite!
