      Pick up your favorite drop shot set up and get ready for some smallmouth fun. I tend to use a 6' 9" Dobyns Sierra for most of my drop shooting with a Daiwa Fuego 2500 spinning reel, 15 lb braid to a 6-10 lb leader.Lures range from Arsenal Tactical Minnows to Roboworms in natural colors. Dragging and hopping my lure around deep boulders and rock spines is the key. Plan B includes burning a chartreuse spinnerbait on the high spots of the rock piles or throwing some sort of walking topwater lure.

      Very tough bite, with cool water, cool night time temps and crystal clear water as always on this lake. Bass caught were primarily on a drop shot on the drop offs in like 12 feet of water. Some fish seemed to be in the spawning mood, with most still cruising the nearest drop off. Lots of fish seen in the 12 foot range, but tough to convert a bite.
