After the hot run on LMB yesterday, I figure I'll try again.

Started off going all the way up north. Welp not much there except finding lots of panfish. Started working my way down and found a SMB. Maybe 1.5#.

Fishing pretty fast bouncing shallow and deep since it started off so slow. I did start finding more SMB when I started targeting deeper water. Bites were pretty scattered though. Deepest SMB came from 27'. Others about 10-20'.

I did find 1 LMB on yesterday's hot lure. About 2-3# size. Did an amazing jump near the boat and came off.

The last half hour, wind picked up. Hoping this help stir things up, I started targeting the shallows again to see if the largies are interested in biting. Not this time.

7 SMB with best at 2.79#. Only 2 were prob under 2#. Very consistent size. They fought very well and looked thicker than yesterday's LMBs.
I did lose something good size. Didn't see color. Set the hook on a dropshot. It ripped drag. Went around a boat lift and came unbutton.
