Bass in Mexico Bay 7/2019 ?

[Hot Soup]

We’ve had great past 3 years with Smallmouth Bass in Mexico Bay 12-30’ FOW.

First trips last week only produce Rock Bass & Sheepshead ? We snorkeled some rock piles & saw no Smallmouth ? Temp was high at 79*+. Any insight on what’s happening with the Smallmouth this year so far ?

Hey Lucky13. Those are team of 6 Father/son Walleye trip up North of Montreal.
We only keep a few Smallmouth every season. I fish them with my 3 kids on ultra light rods for great fights. Kids have great time and we release 95%.

Glad to hear that.  Then as Spoon said, maybe try deeper.
