    Details: Good spot for 1 pounders

    Use some sort of bait that resembles a bluegill and try to sight fish if possible. Try to flip under all the grass mats and into every dark hole in them.

    Took Nitro ZV-21 to Lake Ontario for three days and 4” of rain. Ran it in 15-25 mph winds and monster waves. We were the only boat at a huge launch today. We caught ...more 210 smallmouth bass and lots of Goby. Couldn’t get to areas holding the big ones too rough. Need to catch some like this in my kayak tournaments.
