Creek/stream fishing trip after 4 years gone

[viper30j]

Hey guys, I absolutely LOVE smallmouth bass creek/stream fishing. Nothing beats it. 

 

I've been out of the country for FOUR years and finally returning. I will be traveling for about a month, mostly backpacking around national parks and fishing.

 

Anyone mind pointing to some small steams/creeks that they know have smallies? I don't even need beasts, or anything special. Just some small, quiet creeks that I know you guys love just like I do.

 

Two I have on my list so far from past experiences: clear creek in Indianapolis, and little miami river in cinci/dayton area.

 

Any other suggestions? It literally can be anywhere in the country.
