    Re: Clear water smallmouth

    Oh yea I almost forgot never go smallmouth fishing without jerkbaits. My personal favorite is the olive colored Rapala X-Rap, ripped on light line it's deadly.

    Re: Clear water smallmouth

    My trip is about a month away. I'm trying to gather as much information as I can so I can make some wise decisions while I'm there. You guys have mentioned some good stuff! I'm going to have to do a little shopping! I don't think I've ever bought 4 lb test!

    In-Fisherman has two books out. One on small mouth bass and the other on Walleye. According to the small mouth book the walleyes will run the small mouth out of a spot. So if you are starting to catch walleyes just keep on fishing for them as they are better eating than small mouth bass. LOL


    If you want to catch small mouth then move to a new spot if the walleyes show up.

    6lb and 8lb is plenty low enough 4lb test isn't necessary.

    How about #5-#8 countdown Rapalas in the shad, perch or walleye patterns around the rocks and bluffs.

    Man I forgot about those! I've used those on creeks like Elkhorn before and had good luck with them! Those baits are awesome!
