Directional challenges

The St. Lawrence River is a little peculiar in the fact that it flows north. That causes some directional challenges at times.

I’m south of Waddington today which in most other environments means I’m “down” the river when I’m actually headed up river.

Our focus today is just about anyone who is catching them but we talked with Jamie Hartmann to see where he would settle and he pointed us to an area about 40 minutes south of the take off. We’ve been here for a while and the boats are just starting to arrive.

This is the area where Chad Pipkins and Jonathan Vandam had great a tournament the first time we were here. All of them are drifting. So it will look differently than what most bass angles are used to.

That’s why we like coming here. Seeing new things and new ways to catch smallmouth. Should be interesting.
