nice afternoon
Hi Folks, Guided from the boat yesterday afternoon with spin gear for smallmouth bass. Really nice weather day with big blue skies and a slight breeze from the northwest. Surface water temperature was 76 degrees. Water clarity was not great as it still off colored from Sunday night's big rains. We worked below the surface with 4" crawfish colored Senkos in 10' to 15' of water around downed wood. We landed 9 smallmouth bass. Most of the takes were pretty subtle. In addition we were able take several fish off the surface with baby bass popper. Nice easy afternoon on a lake. I am off to chase river bass this morning. Remember to clean your gear and keep the non-native species at home. Have fun, Willy
