Just A Few Little Ones.

[RSBreth]

I fished around Swan yesterday - only a couple of small male walleyes on a deep suspending jerk - one largemouth on a weighted shad rap so it would suspend, and one nice rainbow on the same shad rap by the bridge. One smallmouth on a bucktail with a leech trailer - I was sure it was a walleye until it jumped!

I was using a new-to-me Academy brand deep suspender - this one is ghost shad:http://www.academy.com/shop/pdp/h2o-xpress-8482-suspending-jerk-bait/pid-22547?color=Ghost+Shad&N=4294956313+97009336

Pretty nice for the money - almost like a Lucky Craft Staysee. I did add a feathered treble on the back, and did have to add a little extra lead to get it to suspend - for 4.50 I'm not complaining. Usually I'm throwing a deep Husty Jerk or Staysee to get down deeper, but I'll add some more of these.

What time of day were you fishing? I was at the dam the night before and never had a bite after dark.

[RSBreth]

I was down there from about 8 A.M. until after 3 P.M. I was trying to get down for the early morning bite but stayed out too late.

I went out this afternoon, no water running @ the dam. Caught 3 short LM bass, 1 on an A-rig (flash mob with small Indiana blades and 3in black/silver curl tail minnows) and the other 2 on a 1/16oz. Road runner with a Colorado blade and Gulp! minnow. Tried the flicker shad, rc stick, and couple other baits with no hits and no walleye for me...yet

I caught the bass on the same stairs as last week by the mouth of swan, before dark
