On my way back from Tennessee I stopped in southwest Virginia to stay the night with my grandparents who live close to South Holston Lake. My friend who lives here said he was catching some smallmouth on deep diving crankbaits so I couldn't pass up the opportunity to try it. Only had about 3 hours of fishing time but it was a blast! Definitely will try to spend some more time on the lake in the future.

Nice!

Those are beautiful fish!

Nice!

Swweeeeeeet ~ !

When Smallies smash a Deep Crank - you know it.

Good Times

Congrats

Honestly anything from Citrus Shad to ghost colors. The fish are just mean I don't think they care what color it is.
