I was on them and thought I had it made. Then yesterday the lake turned over and they are gone. No Shellcrackers or bluegill. I did get a nice smallmouth. These smallmouth fight like no river smallmouth I've caught. Holy hell, no wonder people love lake fishing for these guys.

I told you! That place has some of the biggest bluegill on the planet.
