During the spawn on elk throw that spinnerbait around until you see some fish or catch some fish, alot of times this time of year they will chase your bait all the way back to the boat. Once you've located one, then follow them, once you find one there will be more not too far away. Once you find their bed you can pick up a drop shot and put em in the boat quick.

The fish are really starting to want to move a little shallower even with the water still being cold (43-46). This particular day throwing a jerk bait triggered bites around the boulders the fish were relating to. A long 5-8 second pause was pretty important for getting bites.

Docks

This is for the marina between the bay and the dam: In the fall, when the salmon start moving in, they push the bass back toward the bay and into the marina. With a spinner bait, target the dock pilings and the grass on the bottom. I’ve had the best success with a white or chrome bait with silver willow leaf blades. Use a white fluke tail trailer.
