We've been doing pretty well with small spybaits and ned rigs lately. Also running 2.8 kietechs as well on a jighead with some sort of underspin or flash. They seem to be going for the smaller stuff over the past month but I'm just a weekend warrior for LSC lol
Great tips Brother. I am in the US Army and up here in Northern Michigan now for a big training exercise and I can't believe how clear the water is up here in Michigan
In a lake such as Lake Simcoe which has a lot of gobies, is there a drop shot bait you might recommend? Would a larger goby looking plastic work best to get some large smallmouth in the boat?
I've had more success with the wobble head - glad to see you use it. I started using it several years ago after a talk with Zona. Keep up the great videos - I watch them whenever you produce them. 👍
My go to for smallmouth has been a tube for 30 years but Im going to give that wobble head a try. We'll see how I make out. I do like that you use the heavier head to keep bottom contact.
enjoyed Video and helpful as never fished small mouth in Great Lakes, plan to try this year in Saginaw Bay. Any you suggest good ports/ launch area on Saginaw Bay , say from Bay Port around to Augres? TIA and keep up the great videos. Any videos you can share where you fished on Saginaw Bay?
Normally I can tell based on my electronics but a sure way is just to look at what they’re spitting up when they come to the surface. Those deep water fish tend to spit up a lot of bait when you’re fighting them in

Thanks Alan! Yeah, Zona was the one that turned me onto the wobble head too. It crushes them for sure

Great video Ben thx 👍
Thanks Victor!
Thanks for the info.
Thanks for watching Jerome
Heading to LSC tomorrow am. Hope to slay em!
All of those are in my boat too! Good stuff. Spybait drop shot and wobble all catching fish. Appreciate the insight. Thanks Ben!
Heck yeah! I’m glad to hear that Nick! Hopefully you smash some fish soon
Do u find you lose a lot of fish on a heavy wobble head? I struggle we them over 3/8. .. I fish lake Lake Huron. Georgian Bay
How do you fish the st.maries river that's so big and so much current?
On Erie...tubes until 10...Rapala shadow raps the rest of the day.
How can you tell when the fish are keyed into the bigger bait like perch or if their more keyed into the smaller bait like shiners?

Thanks!!!
I love the info you provide, but you’re losing me with all of the live scope references. It’s not an option for most recreational anglers.
