    I landed a 20 inch Smally in the bay from shore on Thursday. They are still there.

    most people would say that the best time to target the smallies is during mid april to early june when they are spawning in the bay and in shallow rocky areas.   other months of the year, you are gonna need a boat to go out and troll to find them.

    "A Homewood man led police on an hourlong car chase that ended with a crash injuring three officers.

    "The car was driving itself," Wright said. "The car has a GPS. It's a Lincoln Navigator. They drive themselves. I wasn't running nowhere."

    October is a tricky month to come up from any distance to fish. Cold fronts are starting to blow so the lake gets blown around a lot. Mid September would be a good bet. THey generally start feeding pretty good once the first few front start pouring in. Look for them around 20-25 feet over rock piles.
