Mixed bag in most cases on green vs brown. Some years the winners have all green and most go way down to the southern end of the lake which is a 70 mile run to stay on quality largemouth. Most of the northern lake where I live has smallies with some weedy bays hiding the green fish, especially up near the Canadian border. Most of the smallies they keep are in the 3- 4 pound range with a few going to around 5 pounds. In the past, I have seen some 22-23 pound bags all smallies but usually when they get above 20 pounds there is either a mix of green and brown or all green. I think the high wind we had on days 2 and 3 really affected the totals in most cases. The smallies are deep this time of year and fishing with drop shots is difficult in the wind. The long runs to catch largemouth is also hard in the wind. A run to the Ticonderoga area which is popular can take about an hour in calm seas and over 3 if it kicks up. Down and back can take most of the tournament day and is hard on the boat and passenger.
