There's a place on my home lake where I know I can go any day of the week and catch a fish, but they are always juvenile smallmouth. They're always there, and they're always the same size...dinks. Should there be bigger fish around, or is something about this spot just attractive to juvenile fish? The bottom arrow points to where the dinks always hang out. Its a steep drop off a big hill on the TN River that falls to the waterline, then has some slab rocks in maybe 9 feet of water, and then drops quickly to 12 to 15 feet. The dinks are home all the time but I've never caught a decent fish off that bank. One time, many years ago, I caught a decent smallmouth off that pea gravel point opposit the bluff wall. It was a summer morning and he hit a Pop R on top just a few feet from the boat, scared the crap out of me because I was just kind of going through the motions, figuring I'd already passed the most likely place to get hit, and WHAM! Heckuva fight even though it was maybe a 2.5 lb fish.
