Saturday and Sunday I got out early. Launched in the dark. Headed to the backs of coves and cuts in the lower end. Water is warm. It was cloudy both days and caught them sporadically shallow. Buzzer, zara puppy, finesse jig and 5” worm. Never really got on a bunch at one spot but it was just ok fishing.
Sunday, Monday and Tuesday evenings I caught the smallies off our dock with a 1/16th ounce marabou jig on my trout rod. 16”, 17” and the real dark one is a hair over 18”s. A lot of fun on 3 pound P Line. Caught some other small ones too but only pictures of the better ones. Too hot tonight and for the rest of the week for that matter. I might try super early off the dock. Good luck out there.
