Water temps continue to run behind normal for this time of the year in the Northwoods. We found water temps around 60 degrees. Sunny afternoons seemed to get the pre-spawn smallies cruising around likely bedding areas. We casted small swimbaits to water 6 feet deep or less with a combination of sand/gravel and soft bottom transitions near mainlake points. A slow and steady retrieve was most effective.
