Smallmouth we're loaded up on shallow rock piles! I was dragging a Carolina rig right on top, and around the rock reefs and getting bit on the zoom speed craw. I'm guessing other Crawfish imitation lures would have worked, but I like the C rig because it doesn't get that hung up. It comes through the rocks really well.

Fish were cruising the shallows everywhere. We nabbed a few on jerkbaits, and tried other usual suspects for early season smallies. Eventually tossed a hair jig and after finding out how they wanted it presented ( you'll have to figure that out) it was lights out! We had numerous doubles and many fish in the 4-5 lb range, it being a weekday, we had them all to ourselves!

Water temps ranged from 49 to 55. While smallmouth fishing we were able to also catch a few walleyes. The walleyes were on the deeper sections of rock humps and inside turns of rocky points in 10-20 feet depending on structure. Both smallmouth and walleye were chasing perch. White swimbaits produced all our walleyes.

Water temps ranged from 49 to 55 degrees this weekend. Smallmouth were up shallow cruising around rock flats, points and even offshore humps that topped out around 10 feet. Casting and retrieving white swimbaits and black hair jigs produced the best bites. A few bass went for a tube.

Fished a couple rock humps and points with medium sized paddle tail swimbaits. The smallmouth were roaming the rocks and feeding on small perch.

Water temp was 56 degrees. Some fish could be seen cruising shallow areas. However, the week prior had cooler than normal temps which pushed the big fish back out deep. These fish were feeding on schooling minnows and perch. Cast and SLOWLY retrieve a black hair jig or paddle tail swim bait around rock piles. The bigger the rocks, the better. Be sure to make contact with the rocks every so often.

Rock reef inside turn. Had to have wind to activate the bite. Short jerks and long pauses.
