Where To Find The Big Smallies

[TMF89]

If you were fishing a small Canadian lake this time of year,with lots of shoreline structure, but no descernable structure in the lake, where would you look for the biggest smallmouth?

Probably on the rocks.

I'd look for sledneck's boat on the lake and fish there...

I would look for shallow flats, bigger the better, then once you've fished them start on the smaller flats. Points and inside turns along the edges of the flats should have some fish. And any wood along the shoreline should be good. Good luck I'm jealous.

Shoreline structure. I'd just fish the perimeter of the lakes. Our sm bass are still spawning here...probably the tail end now. I'm sure they're at least a couple of weeks behind up there, so they should be still relating to the gravel/rock/boulder mixture. Pay special attention to the occasional isolated big boulder as they often nest there. They also like wood if you can find it.

Good luck,

Id fish windswept rock points, trees in water and cast over logs laying on the bottom(if water is clear enough)...and my favorite

SUNKEN BOULDERS! Thats my bread and butter structure!
