I've been catching my limit of smallies every time I get out. Just moved back here from Alabama and it's great to be home :-) Thought I would leave the heat down there but sure got fooled. I dont ever recall the water being this warm...have to get my water temp sensor checked. Top water bite is great! I've been using Storm Rattlin' Chug Bugs in Shad and frog patterns with a slow twitch/walk the dog retrieve around deadfalls and lily pads. Fish have ranged from 8" to 20". Kept a few in the 14" - 16" range for dinner, but released the large and small ones. I dont know what is considered a large smallmouth, since the only Bass fishing I've done is for Largemouth in the south. Lost my scales sometime during the move, but the estimated weight of the 20" was a little over 4 pounds using the DNR formula (length squared X girth)/1200. Felt heavier than that (guess that's a good excuse to buy one of those new digital scales! haha) If anyone out there can tell me what would be considered a trophy smallmouth up here, I sure would like to know. Tight lines and good luck.
