Took my boy out with me today to see what was biting at LaSalle. We were not disappointed :-D . Chunky smallmouth were feeding nicely , so much so that we ran out of minnows. My son and I {o.k. mostly my son} caught 10 nice sized smallies and another 10 or so that were 12" or less before we ran out of bait. We also caught 4 keeper yellow bass and only maybe 4 or 5 of those annoying 12" channels.
Here are 3 pics of my son's fish. We also lost two honest 18" smallies on the rocks because I ain't as nimble as I used to be and I got excited when I saw them.
================================================
After we left LaSalle, we decided to try Heidecke since it was on the way home. We got a good spot by the bridge, but after an hour or so, without a bite we decided to go home. We did hear that some boaters are catching a few walleye both early and late in the day.
