Summer is a great time to use swim baits casting on the shallow rock piles on the lake. I like a 1/4 oz jig with a Ripple Shad, and locate the rock and put your trolling motor down and start casting into them. I use Fireline with about 3-5’ of 8 lb mono and tie the mono directly to the fireline. Start on the wind blown side first and work your way around the rocks casting up into them. Good luck

Mid summer mornings with no wind look for reefs that top out at 5’-10’. Try surface baits, toss them out on the reef tops and slowly pop them back to the boat. When the smally hits wait a couple seconds before setting the hook. Good luck.
