crossover Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 I am going camping starting the last day of June, and am wondering what I should pick up for smallmouth bass. I've had success on twisty tails and yum dingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

super dave Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 Tubes in green, light brown twisters, brown rapala countdowns. For live bait, leeches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misfish Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 TUBES Sad to say, that YUM has changed my favorite tube. I have alot of new baits to try this year thanks to the OFC Classifieds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiel Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 My favourite would be anything topwater, but conditions have to be favourable. That aside tubes are my most consistent producer in any water body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EC1 Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 I started using the crosstail shad by jackall this year on a dropshot(Only problem is that they are not readily available in the GTA). Unbelievable action, and the fish love it. Even got a 40+" muskie to chomp down on it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ThisPlaceSucks Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 my most consistent smallie producer over the past 5 years has been a plain white grub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aplumma Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 A great search bait is the white Bandit Shallow diving crankbait. You can cover a lot of water quickly and they seem to get some of the best reaction bites. Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish1812 Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 gotta be a smoke colour salted tube, on a worm hook with a split shot 24 inches up the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lunkerbasshunter Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 most excting way to catch smallies on top water and using jitterbug (old school) The easiest way to catch smallies is on tubes or stick baits Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cram Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Agree with Sal on the white grub, but i have the most fun catching them on mepps spinners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrison Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 (edited) #1 smallmouth bait to use in all type/depth of water IMO, is the jerkbait. Hands down. Edited June 12, 2011 by Harrison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Flame Red Original Hot n Tot. Works great around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lew Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Been a LOT of years since I fished for bass, but back in the day it was fast moving spinnerbaits or jerkbaits, and early morning, late evining not much would ever beat minnow baits twitched on the surface. Never did find the patience for dragging rubber baits on the bottom though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PikeMolester Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 (edited) Favorite and most productive in my experience and more interesting than standard grubs, senkos and tubes. #1. X-rap #2. Cranking is my favorite. Bomber Fat Free Shad/Guppy in sexy shad or craw colors (personal favorite) #3. Jackall Crosstail Shad or Berkley Hollow Belly Split Tail (drop shot) #4. Stike King Bottom Dweller. Catching em in 20-30 fow on spinnerbaits #5. Plastic craws. Chigger Craws on stand up jigs like Title Shot Knuckleballs Jigs Edited June 12, 2011 by Canucker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
