Got out at 7am and fished till 12:30pm. Had good amount of north wind. With a water temp of 69 degrees. I used a Irod IRG703c paired with a revo STX. I used 12# Berkley big game and medium diving cranks. I fished steep bluffs and as many rock piles I could bounce my crank off of. Chartreuse and black worked the best. I didn’t slow down the whole time just covered water. Nothing big but a lot of smallies. Great day on the water!
