Was targeting smallmouth but ended up with a few largemouth in the river. Did catch some smallmouth on the smaller side. Was casting towards the laydowns on the bank and slowly crawling the sleeper craw back with a few hops. Largemouth were just sucking the craw in. very subtle bite. 12lb invisx line and using a 7'3" alpha angler zilla rod.
