Smallmouth were caught in the shallower water slow rolling a small swimbait around logs. When the water warmed up the fish bit a lot better.

Great day for smallies on Chequamegon bay. Fish were willing to hit a variety of baits. Best were 3 inch swimbaits followed by YUM dingers rigged wacky style.

Smallies we're located in the Sand Cut Slough. They were in shallow water that was less stained. Fish were caught in 5' or less. The hot bait was a 3" Megabass Spark shad on spinning gear with a light weight head. Making long casts and swimming it back briskly triggered bites.
