Managed to beg off work early again and was on the lake by 3pm....
The lake started out with a slight chop but as the day got longer it was almost dead calm. The coves have cooled down some with several I fished being 63F. I tried and tried to get into the crappie....then started smallmouth fishing and the bite was red hot. We caught like 15 or so smallies with most being 1.5 lb to 2.5lb. Caught several small LM and spots also in addition to the smallies. They were absolutely tearing up a 1/8 oz Green road runner with a 3" shad/fire tail grub on it. I never switched the lure all evening, just kept straightening the hook and replacing the grub. I did file the hook twice after loosing a couple and of course a BIG one. Most were caught in rocky areas in 2 fow with drop offs near by. All out of the same area. Even caught 3 large perch on the road runner also.
