After a couple days all I've managed so far is a couple pike. Target species is smallmouth but I'd never say no to a good walleye bite either. People I've talked to haven't offered much advice.
Ive been using jerk baits/spinners/swimbaits and when those don't work I guess I just collapse as an angler 🤣 but I'd expect them to be shallower this time of year and surely I'd get a little one or two just by accident by now. I've been fishing mostly in the morning and afternoons.
Any tips or tricks? Is live bait the key possibly? Maybe I am coming off the water too early before it gets a bit darker. I'm staying in big bay but I can definitely roam. Would appreciate general locations and advice o
