Being retired, I'm able to fish weekdays, try it, you'll love it. So, I would like just some basic info to cut down the learning curve, mostly for squam and winni.
During nonspawn time:

  1. Knowing that smallmouth are a bit more active when it's sunny, basically how do you fish differently when it's a cloudy day? Is it more of a depth, retrieve speed thing?
  2. What would you say is the bait you're trying to imitate most of the time, perch, sunfish, smelt or craw.
  3. If you could only have one type of bait---rig on your boat for the day, what would it be?
