My wife said she wanted to go fishing, so we took the afternoon off and put in at Ditto Landing. The wind was blowing pretty well, so I used an app to find bluffs out of the wind. We fished a bluff that I knew would be good this time of year because the smallies like to spawn on the bluff end. Sure enough, we caught them there dragging a shakeyhead probe until the water got muddy. We also went into the lighthouse bay and caught a few spots and a 3 lb largemouth on the shakeyhead as well. A real good 3 hours with one of my favorite fishing partners.
