SmallMouthFisherOfMen Posted June 20, 2018 Posted June 20, 2018 Hello all bass fisherman. My name is Will and I'm not a knowledgable bass fisherman but get ideas from YouTube. I probably fish smallmouth bass once a year and the rest of the time I work, summer bass fishing is what I normally fish in the season. When I fish for bass, I'm fishing in Oregon and there are lots of rivers and primarily off the John Day river. In all the years I've fished for smallmouth bass probably a good 5 years. I don't know all there is about fishing for smallmouth but am wanting to learn and hopefully hear from any of you as to what I can do or if there are any locals in Oregon that can lead me in the right direction. Here's a sort of bass fisherman I am, I really like spinnerbaits and also inline spinnerbaits like rooster tails. Have had success with them. Am sort of new to the idea of using jigs and which baits you can use and the techniques of them, but as I've said YouTube has given me a visual idea of ways to use jigs. I also like using crank baits, as well as using plastic worms. Hopefully this tells you the type of bass fisherman I am and maybe other ways or techniques in which to use these all great baits. Thanks Quote

moguy1973 Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 Learn to use a tube and match the color of the tube with the color of the craws in the river you fish and you'll be on them all day. Quote
