The rebel craw was what worked for me on my last outing so I tied that on first. After about 20 casts and 0 fish I end up launching it into a tree across the creek and couldnt get it back. I then tried on a white and chartreuse Bomber Square A. Caught my first rock bass of the year. Then another, and another, and another. Then ended up casting it into a tree about 40 yds from the rebel craw. So then I tied on a black and red Bomber Square A and continued the rock bass brigade and even get one sunfish that was just barely bigger than my crankbait. I only had about 20 minutes left to fish and still had one more spot I wanted to hit so I hopped in the car and drove downstream about a mile. Decided since the fish were biting so good and a couple other guys have been posting videos I'd set up my phone to record a video of me catching one. On the 3rd cast I just let the crankbait sit on top of the water for a few seconds and a nice 15 in. smallmouth came up and snatched it.
Here's the video:

So at the end of 2 1/2 hrs at the creek I ended up with 9 rock bass, 1 sunfish, and a pretty decent smallie for that creek. Not a bad day.
That is a nice fat smallie! Congrats man, and nice video!
