Orion, Michigan

Today, there was literally one very small area where the bass were concentrated. The reason I know this is because I circled the entire lake with no action. Nothing. Returned to the spot where the electronics showed a sandy bottom leading to a steep drop off with submerged structure and vegetation. Here was the best of the bunch. Tight lines! 👊

By request… I hit another new spot today… Lower Trout Lake. Wind was tough, but I found them deep with the KVD Square Bill! Big thanks to Alex for the recco! 👊 Okay FA, where do I go next?!? 🤣

New lake. New challenges. Starting with the wind 💨 💨 💨. Brutal. Looked for any semi-protected pockets and fished them hard. Gotta a few dinks. Really tough to detect bites when your line has a massive bow in it! 🤣 The wind was also changing direction so I was constantly readjusting. Went to the anchor to stabilize things (which I don’t normally use) because I like to cover a lot of water, but managed to run into the pike in 18-feet of water. Then I found a narrow cut that led to a smaller part of the lake with an area that was relatively calm and the bite was on. 👊
