Fish were on points with grass, Best success was ripping a chatterbait through the grass. My follow up bait was a weightless stick bait.

It was a very tough day of fishing. We had 47 Kayaks at the event and less than 20 people caught fish. I managed 3 fish but really had to work for them.

The bass are starting their fall feeding. I was able to find some schools of bass in moderately deep water. You have to let the spoon flutter all the way to the bottom with a semi slack line. once on the bottom, give the line two quick jerks and let it flutter back down.

What an incredible weekend of fishing. The smallmouth were on fire. Using the standard Ned Rig with Green Pumpkin, the smallmouth would continually crush the rig. You could work this anywhere you had a decent drop-off ledge. Use your electronics to target these areas. Look for schools of bass and take your time. Don't rush it and use a lightweight ned head.
