A few smallies could still be found on beds, but the majority had moved back to deeper water, and the drop shot was the key. Schools were found in 35-45 feet of water on the steeper side of off shore humps, with some larger fish coming from 60-70 feet. This was Day 1 of the Hobie Bass Open Series Winnipesaukee event.
