Lite line, clear water. I haven't been there but twice. Don't throw top water around the Ospray's! :lol: Small Mouth.
I don't know enough, to leave well enough alone.

It is hard to give normal advice because the weather has been far from normal!! The water should be quite clear, so folks usually used 4 to 8 lb test. IF - a warming trend does happen this week, look for a topwater bite, especially after 7 pm. They seem to like chugger type baits. I like the Storm Chug Bug. Look for shadows. One of the big thrills is throwing a black diving crankbait starting about a half hour before dark. June is usually a good month to do this. I have gotten some strikes that have scared me. I think my right arm is longer than my left because of those hits. Just slowly tick the tops of rock structure. Those smallies are usually over 3 lbs. Small Robo worms are great during the day. Green pumpkin is always a good color to start with. Hope this help a bit.
