Transition has started. Although smallies were still hanging in the creek channels, starting to get cooler at night with the same high temps during the day. Tossing a jig in the shade lines still works ok but they are starting to slow down a bit.

Much to my surprise the deep crank bite is still on! Two of my biggest fish of the week came on both green gizzard shad 5xd and crystal shad. Ledges and points are where this bait shines (of course), but if you can find a deep flat it works there too. Get jacked up on caffeine and let er rip, you will know if they are there quickly. Remember “wind is your friend”. Tight lines,
