All caught on bandits. It was busy but most people weren’t fishing.

The big smallies pictured were a blast on crappie gear

Nice catch.

How deep were you trolling?

I was surprised and found the bass in 8-12 feet Saturday and not shallow. Most seemed spawned out. I caught mine on soft plastics.

Anyone else want to weigh in on JPP?

I was in deeper water I guess you could call it. I was trollin bandit 300's with 110 feet of #10 line out. Was working so the baits would be just above the bottom. I don't have a depth finder but I would say at least 12-18 FOW. All the lures that produced had some kind of chartreuse somewhere on them.

I fished the Mac Tournament on JPP yesterday. We caught 12 fish most in 8-14 FOW on a rattle trap and A-rigs. 4 of those were smallmouth the biggest only 15 inches. We only had one keeper a 16' LM that was 2.42lb. 18lbs won the tournament with 17.76 2nd place. We fished very hard from 7-230 shallow and deep and stayed deep after we had better luck with that. Shallow, I dont think we caught a fish. Most fish were caught on long rocky points near deep water. Oh, there was 65 boats in this tournament.
