The Salt river from Shepherdsville to Taylorsville does not have many Smallies but you can find an abundance of largemouth and spotted bass along with boat loads of crappie ,whites and catfish. If you are looking for smallmouth you need to check out floyds fork where 3 pounders are not that uncommon. I might should keep my mouth shut because I hope the fork doesnt end up like Dale hallow loose lips sink ships...Good luck Jarrod
