Walking and plopper style top waters worked well for a good mixed bag of smallmouth and largemouth. Best action along inside edge of weeds in 2-4’ during morning hours until around 9:00.

Caught a handful of walleyes out on the humps, there were schools of 3-4 swimming in a group, a simple cast at them with a jerk bait would get them fired up.

Hit the home waters for a quick morning bite. Found some largemouth around dock, but the best bite was in the submerged weed flats in about 5-8 ft of water using swimjigs. Lots of small pike too, but the larger bass were feeding in the same areas.

Fished out of North access. Northeast part of lake. Bass scattered in submerged weeds all across the bay. Best success was in 6 to 7 feet water with weeds submerged about 2 feet from surface. Caught mostly 13 to 15 inch LMB also caught a few smallie. A few pike (small) and plenty of good sized rock bass. All fish releasef.

This lake can produce some action packed topwater fun. I found a faster retrieve produced more bites here. Follow up missed strikes with a Jig or Texas Rig.

Low light conditions. Weed edge 8-14 how near deep water. Jumbo leeches preferred. Small mouth bass also in location. Walleye size 14”-20”. Windy condition increased effectiveness.
