Found several nice smallies on the top of humps at Shackleton Shoals - the biggest over 5lbs. The fish were not incredibly active, so a lift and drop alternated with a slow retrieve was most effective at enticing bites. Depths of 6-11' were most effective, especially where rocks were present.

I was twitching the jerk minnow very fast up to fish that I could see then when it got close to them I would kill it and let it fall right in front of them. They would either eat it on the fall or on the first twitch after I let it hit the bottom.
