Just got back from an up north trip and had tons of fun fishing some new lakes. Caught about 20 largemouth using drop shots in 15-22 feet of water at Budd Lake. I recommend using about a 18” gap between your hook and weight here. I’d really recommend focusing on the north side past the island in that deeper part of water, but we were catching them on the south side too. Just look for the drop offs and you’ll find fish sitting there.
