Silver Lake, Washington for crappie is hot right now. Limit is 12 over 9 inches. Lots of fish. Small grub under a float. Bank anglers have been having great success with fish feeding close to vegetation.

Hump’s along current seams snap jigging hair jigs produced smallmouth and walleyes. The Perch and Florescent green ones worked the best whenever there was light cloud cover

Shad
The bite pretty much died this morning. Spent 3.5 hours throwing everything I had at them and managed a pair of fish that were roughly the same size as the Strike King Sexy Dawg Jr. I caught them on, going to be hot again today, so I expect shadelines, color lines, mats, anything to provide even the smallest amount of relief for the fish will be big players today.

Shad
I had a tough run in the wind this weekend, 4 hours produced 4 fish, the largest of which went 1lb 1oz, 2 on a Strike King KVD 300 Jerkbait in Clear Ayu, though I expect that anything shad colored would work too (my biggest producers here are in natural baitfish and craw colors) in addition to one on a Bill Lewis Rat-L-Trap in Ayu and an Ozark Trail spinnerbait in willow/Colorado configuration in a white/shad color.

the BioSpawn Rattlebot in Sexy Shad got it done tonight, also caught one off a shad colored Rapala Jerkbait, post-frontal today so get ready to earn those you catch, and they aren't big, but a bit of work and you can land a few

Caught a few slow hopping a football through the rocks. These smallies hit so hard.
