Will spinners work, or should I use plugs for walleye and smallies here?  I never fished for walleye much before, if at all.  I read that floats with small jigs would work but leeches worked better.  Not sure if leeches are available here or if they work.  What else will work from the bank?

Soft plastic baits around the rocks of the shoreline should hold plenty of Small mouth bass to keep you busy. Have fun, good luck!

 :yeah: I've done decent on spinners at times, but tubes, wacky worms, swimming grubs, other classic smallmouth plastics seem to be more productive.

Went and got there and shortly after the wind started blowing something terrible.  It seems that its always windy there at least a few people told me.  I managed to get lucky and have a tent that was wind rated so my tent was sturdy.  There were plenty that were not lol.  It was so windy that I only fished for a few minutes.  My buddy caught a whitefish about 16 or 18 inches long.  I had some short strikes on smallmouth that followed close enough to see them bnut no hookups.  Fished along the rocks near the dam.
