Probably just as well we were in The Tin Can. The water was pretty low.
The only real disadvantage is she's slow, and our first spot was a bit of
a run. With judicious use of a push pole and the trolling motor we
managed to skim into our first spot and caught a nice limit of small
keepers pretty quick by chunking and winding. On a hunch I tossed a large
white spinner bait up and dragged it over a shallow tree stump. When I
started working the shallow flat I told myself the water was to low and it
was too early yet to find them up there, but as I dragged it over a branch
it got whacked by our big fish of the day. A solid 4+. We dinked around
a bit more, but our crank / spinner bait bite was done.

Oh, yeah, and just to make Joe happy. It was a Secret Weapon. LOL. The
Persuaders and King Cobras I might have been throwing are all locked up in
The Antique Kitten. The SWL was the only one I had in the right color when
I was filling my little carry bag I use when I'm fishing out of The Tin Can.
