Dave...my brother, Jack and myself are looking forward to our trip with you on the 25th of September. We realize that is probably going to be early for the smallmouth bite, but with your expertise, I am sure we can boat some nice LM. If they are schooling at that time, which should be HOT, I love fishing the jumps when they are averaging 2-3lbs. I will get with you a week or so out for specifics. Good fishing, until we get there........and then, GREAT FISHING!..../MikeW)
