Water temps reached the high 50's and with that target shallow areas with grass. fish were in 3-5 of water either right along a weed line or tight to cover (brush, laydowns, etc.) Fish the ZMAN Chatterbait Jackhammer with a medium-speed retrieve. Did not necessarily need to add in pauses, jerks, or speed changes to get the fish to bite. The main key was accurately casting along the weedline or cover.

Definite prespawn bite at Boyd Lake. Water is 8-10' low relative to typical summer levels. First cast of the day along the rock, caught a rainbow trout on the new Storm Deep Wiggle Wart. Caught one more trout in the same stretch. Continued fishing the rock. Dad caught a decent smallie on the same lure. I caught a small largemouth on a jerkbait. Found a stretch where the rock came out into deeper water and started getting bit multiple times on the deep wiggle wart. Casting it right on the bank and slow cranking it out to about 6' was the ticket. All-in-all, had a low 80" limit between the two of us with the largest being a 17" smallie.
