Not being able to catch any fish lately has really got me down so I figured I would post some I caught back during late Nov.- early Jan. 20 1/2 inches on a Jig 19 3/4 on the FnF. I was trying to get my buddy to get a good pic of the "war Paint" 22.4 inches on a Hair Jig 20 incher of the FnF Ok now my fishing fever is worse.

Those are great fish guys. If they pull my line they are fun. Stonewall, I am ready for those big gals to go pre-spawn. They need to get the war paint on. One time a freind from Florida asked what I thought was the biggest difference between smallmouth and largemouth. I gave it a little thought and came up with this . A smallmouth is a bass that gets up in a bad mood every morning and from there, thier mood goes down hill all day. He said if they are that bad how would it compare to the big Florida strain largemouth.(he had never caught a smallmouth) I told him that if you tied a 5 lb smallmouth to the tail of a 10 lb largemoth the smallie would drown the largemouth. Later he came to Norris in October and challenged me to prove it. On his first ever smallmouth fishing day he caught a 5 lb smallie. After that he moved to Tennessee. Fish2win

LOL. I told my cousin the same. I told him son I know spots fight like crazy, but you aint ever seen a bass fight until you hook a smallie. They pull like a freight train. I told him a 2 pound smallie fight better then a 6 pound largemouth. He said "bull." He going come up here in summer and we are going to the river and I'm try to prove him wrong.
Smallies are mean and nasty they are like rocky dont get very big but they sure can fight.

I am ready for the pre-spawn too Fish2win. It was the end of March last year when I began to hammer the big females last year, so it is getting close.
Amen on all the comments about Smallmouth. I had rather catch 1 smally than 10 bucket mouths!!!!!!!
