Smallmouth BassTechniqueDamiki RigSeasonWinterStructureFlooded BrushI used Forward Facing Sonar and Mega 360 to find flooded brush in 20-30 feet of water and hung a damiki rig about 1-2 feet off the bottom where potential fish may have been. Fish would be grouped up and come investigate the damiki rig. The xzone hot shot minnow would go to work on the damiki jig head as you hold it steady making the fish bite.
