After the first day back to work after a 9 day hiatus I was ready to cool off with a relaxing evening of wading. Water felt great. I fished for about 2 hours and only landed one fish. This little guy was a rocket! It hit a junebug colored Zoom trick worm after I tried black and also a pumpkin colored Zoom lizard. Caught it in very shallow water. The smallies don't seem to be super active quite yet even though a few weeks back I netted 3.

The smallies will heat up later on. Can't wait

Yep....I'm thinking the 3 I caught last trip were pushed up into more calm spawning waters. This one from today was hanging out in less than a foot of water. It won't be long and they'll be ready to rock and roll.

After losing almost all of my river tackle a couple weeks ago, I get to create another river box. Hate to spend the money on things I already had bought but oh well. Plastics really are productive for smallies. I usually went with cranks and spinners for the most part but being low on tackle forced me to try some slower baits (plastics). They work!
