I need instructions on smallmouth lol?
i catch smallmouth with the same lures i catch LM with i think the key is just fishing a place you know has smallies like a clear deep resivour and throw what u would throw normally for the conditions such as if it is rocky and clear maybe a crawfish imitation (tube,crawbug,kreature,etc) in brown or black or anythink u think may work
