👤 Mike T.manistee was buzzing today! my buddy and i hit the water around 7am, the weather was perfect, partly cloudy and a nice 18°C. we were using some senko worms and man did they work wonders. i caught 5 nice smallmouth, biggest was around 4lbs! the wind picked up a bit around noon but we just moved to some sheltered spots. ended up losing one at the boat tho which was a bummer! but overall a solid day on the water, can’t wait to go again soon.
