It's been my experience that the bass in this lake really hone in on bluegill & crappie imitations. As the water temps starts hitting the 50s, don't be afraid to run lipless baits & squarebills over flats as those early weeds start emerging. Windy conditions are ideal for this kind of presentation.

Was targeting points and spawn staging areas with the jackhammer to cover water and have an amazing day! Caught 15 fish in less than 20 minutes, all would've been weighing fish if it were a tournament! Great day on Honeoye!!!

One of the best things to do post Ice out is to find the new fresh grass, or left over alive grass from The call and slowly rip a trap (anything in craw pattern) steady retrieve or yoyo can work on any given Day

Started the day targeting rock with a Queen Tackle Tungsten Finesse Football Jig with a Berkley MaxScent Chigger Craw and also creeping a Rage Swimmer on bottom. Once the sun came up, I targeted bass pushing shallow with the same jig and also a Berkley Stunna. Some visually but many on Humminbird MEGA Live.
