Default Five days on Michigamme -- clear water smallmouth?

Heading to make Michigamme with a friend and his family next week. Going to be five days and five nights of fishing. The lake is completely the opposite of what I've fished before. Deep, super clear, rocky water. Smallmouth, pike, muskie, walleye, crappie, perch, and bluegills. NO LARGEMOUTH!

I'm really hoping to get into some good smallmouth action, and know I will with these guys, but want to seek ya'll input as well.

The bass should be toward the end of the spawn according to the North American Fishing Club spawn map.

To my knowledge, they should be spawning in around 8 - 10 feet of water and susceptible to sight fishing IF the water is calm enough. Prime spawning flats should be close to some sort of deep water structure.



The area around Dutchman Point looks fantastic, as does the area around Presbytery Point. I'm thinking to throw perch colored tubes, and drop shot Gobi's to them. My buddy tells me 4" dingers are also killer!

But having no experience fishing this type of area to bank on, I can't really say for sure.

So where would fish, and what would you throw?

Thanks guys!
