Preston and his two sons, Draeden and Cole fished with me today on another windy day. It began with residual NE winds in the morning but went SE in the afternoon. Although a little slow at the start, it eventually picked up when we went deep. They learnt a new technique today that will likely be applied to some of their waters out west. All three of them just hammered quality smallies by dropshotting the depths of a rocky flat. Numerous doubles and even a few triples were seen while using this method. Boat control was the toughest, with a big cross wind from the SE making it almost impossible to drift. I really had to work at keeping their lines properly positioned in order to get bit, but I made it work! We spent the bulk of the day scouring the depths and were rewarded with quality bass for our efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although we fished many places today with some success, it was definitely the deeper water areas that produced the best. Preston and his sons experienced spectacular fishing, using a new technique. I\u2019m sure this method will be added to their lakes back home and hope they have similar success. Today was just the start of more great days of fishing!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
