Smallmouth BassTechniqueHard Topwater (Popping)SeasonSummerStructurePointsFished for a week and consistently found smallmouth and some largemouth early up on rocky points feeding on bugs. Having a feather -tipped treble on the back of a popper was a must as most bites were subtle. During the afternoon the bite slowed quite a bit but grass anywhere from 10 to 20 produced bass as well as a wide variety of other species. Biggest bass of the week went 5.4 lbs.

SpeciesSmallmouth BassTechniqueSoft Body Swimbaits (Small/Medium)SeasonSpring (Pre-Spawn)StructurePointsWater temps continue to run behind normal for this time of the year in the Northwoods. We found water temps around 60 degrees. Sunny afternoons seemed to get the pre-spawn smallies cruising around likely bedding areas. We casted small swimbaits to water 6 feet deep or less with a combination of sand/gravel and soft bottom transitions near mainlake points. A slow and steady retrieve was most effective.
