Report: A friend and I gave Brownlee a try for about 30 fish from 1.5 to 3.5 pounds. It started slow with hand poured plastics for a fish every 20 minutes. When the sun warmed the water around 11am, we started getting fish on deep crankbaits. By 1 pm, the fish were on the bank and hitting spinnerbaits and that is when we caught the best fish.

Tips: Find warmer water and power fish.
