  1. caught a 4lb small 3 weeks ago, im guessing the water was between 15-20 feet deep. If you ask me the fall bite is on, just taking its time. i went out this weekend and got skunked and the water was 2x as cold as when i caught that 4 pounder. I'm thinking of using some deeper diving/sinking baits as well as drop-shotting and swimming jigs.
  2. Does anyone know where i can get a bomber "FAT A" crank bait for as cheap as possible? i've found some on ebay but the price is kinda stiff on them. i just want to do some bargin hunting before i break down and get it there.
  3. So far all of my bites this fall have been from bomber crankbaits and green pumpkin tru-tungsten worms. what have you had luck with this fall? I hear spinnerbaits are a good choice too, i havent had any luck with mine yet.
  4. you guys are having some great times during the rain lol, idk what it is but i'm going to keep trying. here in maine the waters are really cold too, that could be affecting the mood of the smallmouths im after as well. i've tried crankbaits, spinnerbaits, jerkbaits, and a whole lot of other things. from the replies i'm hearing topwater in a light rain can be good, as well as spinnerbaits and soft plastics. I'll have to give it a more thorough try the next time im caught in the rain. any other lures/techniques that do well in rain and cold water temps?
  5. yeah man, thats true.
  6. thats crazy, my experiences had me scared to fish in the rain lol. but i wont give up, plus im sure its not as miserable when you're getting bites.
  7. very true haha, i'll do that when i get some 10 money. or find a deal.
  8. ever had a day where it looked like it might rain but there was a chance it wouldnt and you were so eager to fish that you went out there and got dumped on ontop of not getting a bite? i'm sure we all have at one point or another so here's my question. WHAT HAVE YOU LANDED A BASS ON DURING RAINFALL OR A DRIZZLE? for me its nothing. lol
  9. thats good to hear, because i love the thing. not bad for 30$ like you said.
  10. wow so these lightning rods seem promising huh? i definetly like mine, my PB is 4lbs but i ddn't catch it on my lightning rod.
  11. my best was a 4 pound smallmouth on a chartreuse bomber model "A" crank bait. 3 weeks ago actually lol.
  12. thats what im hearing and yea man good idea.
  13. haha funny you say that, i'm not far from caribou. and yea i've been warned a million times, i'm working on getting ready. im going to die over winter wishing i could fish... eyeballing my lures and gear haha. i can see it now.
  14. wow i wis i got that deal haha, but yea i feel it gets the job done for now.
  15. oh nice i'll have to check out the shock too. im happy with this for 30$ though. 7's about what i'd give it too.
  16. thanks man, and yea i'll have to check that out haha still figuring things out on here. And yes haha just moved to maine this year. loving it!
  17. berkley lightning rod 7' medium heavy casting stick. for a cheap rod what would you rate it on a scale of 1-10? got mine for 30$ and i think its a well put togeather and feels great.
  18. I've been fishing since a kid with my father (mostly saltwater) and as i got older i began becoming more and more obsessed with fishing. I mainly fish freshwater these days and what i love most about fishing is that there are no limitations to what can be done and expiramented with. as a kid i'd use live bait and never really used lures, my dad didn't. he was more of a fish for dinner guy. when i began going off on my own and digging a little deeper i found that i like fishing lures more. I enjoy swapping blades on my spinner baits and trimming skirts or sharpening hooks. I like the challenge, trying to catch fish in a way that's not simply dangling a live worm or minno infront of a hungry fish. I like using artificial baits to even the playing field a little bit, really work for the bite. I know live bait is all that will work in some stuations but i just felt like sharing my prefrence haha but theres a lil about me. btw my names brandon.
  19. the biggest smallmouth bass I've caught so far.
  20. thats great man haha i never knew that! thanks for the info. learn something new everyday...

  22. I've been doing a great deal of smallmouth bass fishing lately and have been wondering why it seems like they arent fished professionally like largemouths? who can answer this?
