6/18 - 6/19 - Action around the flats with live bait rigs. Best luck was with leech and 12' lead and chartreuse hook. A few came with crawlers. Over the two days we had a half dozen over 22 with two at 27" with another 4 eater size. A few small mouth mixed in with 18" being the largest.

Went up north for the long weekend. Pokegama was on fire for smallies. Fishing the same stuff from July 1-4. 2-8 feet of water fishing rocks, boulders, and weeds near rock lines. Most fish came on a drop shot with a super short leader (4-5 inches). Berkeley max scent flat worm in straight green pumpkin was the juice. They were eating the 3.6 and 4.25 inch (didn't matter the size). Working it slow through the rocks or weeds and just shaking the slack was the key to the biggest bites.
