    I have caught some smallies up to five and a half pounds the only time fishing for them at one of the finger lakes but I agree that Lake Erie is the place to go.

    A general rule I like to use is the bigger the lake, the better the size.

    Presence of gobies also seemed to have gotten fish bigger and bigger as well.

     

    For numbers, (at least in Canada) if you find a shield lake in your area that isn't as pressured, you could cash out on a number of 3-4lb fish.
