Thanks Fred! I tried a jig with an imitation goby body with a paddle tail first, and there were no takers. Tied on a Rapala DT6 and started to hit them.. as fast as I could crank, they were banging it. I was surprised to find the water temp still at 61°…
The Smallie fishing in the Great Lakes, and St Clair are definitely on my bucket list. Glad you selected the right alternative, it definitely paid off.
