What is the shad spawn

Spring topwater selection

I have two tournaments this weekend. Adversity is dope, right? Injector fails last Sunday. It was delivered Wednesday night, installed, configured and tested Wed. night (yesterday), Thursday my buddy and I went to Lake George to hit some pre-spawn beauties. We had a great day on the water. On the way home my leaf spring decided it had enough. Adversity is Dope, and I really want to make it to these two tournaments this weekend... I know what I will be doing today.

Yesterday we had a EXTREMELY impactful live class with Trevor Lo on early season smallmouth fishing. 

what are the best conditions to fish, does weather affect fishing.

We have a live class Tonight. I'm going to be talking about early season smallmouth fishing with Trevor Lo. 8pm EST

I have some less than ideal news. Last week I came down with what I thought was just a “bug”. I pushed through and fished my tournament but it got worse everyday. Turns out I either had the flu or maybe even Covid! 🥹 I went in to urgent care this morning. That ended in had x-rays and an antibiotic 5 hours later. I never filmed anything last week. I just didn’t have any energy. In some weird way I’m glad to know I actually was sick because it felt like I was “un-motivated” which is something I’ve never really experienced. I should be solid in a few days of rest. We have a live school this Wednesday. I think I’ll be good by then but I’ll probably still be coughing quite a bit. I want to have a few of you on the live. Anyone want to come on? Let me know.

working a spillway today caught 2 largemouth on strike king chartriusse and black back 1.5 crankbait silent. They wouldn't touch the ones with the rattle. water clarity is about 2 feet. Water wasn't to fast so what do i use that will be better for the fast water about 4 feet deep. there is hybrids and largemouth in there just struggling to get bites. rocky bottom. 

Great weekend to be at the north woods cabin for some fishing, eating, and drinking.
