BEST Summer Smallmouth Baits for St. Clair (and Great Lakes) 

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

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.

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?

Thanks Benjamin! Another good video sir. Hitting St Clair in the morning… Can’t wait 🐟

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. 👍

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?

Heading to LSC tomorrow am. Hope to slay em!

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?

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 for the info.

Great video Ben thx 👍

All of those are in my boat too! Good stuff. Spybait drop shot and wobble all catching fish. Appreciate the insight. Thanks Ben!

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.
