Conditions

Smallmouth bass remain your primary target around structure on streamers and buggers, and pike are moving into shallower water where they're catchable on fly. Larger perch are still schooling and active. With boat traffic dropping off as summer winds down, focus on deep structure and cover for the best fish.
