Points
Drop shots fished slowly on points produced some quality post spawn smallmouth. The water is extremely clear and stealthiness is key. It also seemed to help to let the areas rest and come back after an hour or so.

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.
