OK, Sfritr and Francho, I'm not finding any 4" Roboworms anywhere. Where do you get yours?

Tackle Warehouse, Bass Pro, Cabelas 

I was just at BPS today and they had more stocked that I have ever seen in the past

Let me preface by saying I do most of my smallie fishing in a secluded tributary creek where a 14" smallie is big and bottom-bumping lures get broken off about every 5th cast in a massive maze of rocks.  That said:

for numbers: 3" senko in watermelon or black

for size:  4" Yum Dinger in green pumpkin/red

biggest I ever hooked: Zoom tube in the Natural Shell color

Posted

Soft jerbaits: 3 Bass Assassin, 4 Finesse Fish, 4 Sluggo

Spring: Slider 1.5" Crappie/Pan Fish Grub; Tubes: 3 Screwtail Minnow (don't know what they're called after all these years or even if they're still made, but I got plenty).

Summer: 4 Berkley Finesse Worm Hand Pour.

Fall: G.Y. Fat Ika.

I river fish for smallmouth mostly...

Zoom Fat Albert-Green Pumkin or Green with red flake

Chompers Hula Grub-Same as above

V&M Pork Pin with a brass weight

3" Gitzit tubes, they are hard to find now but a big bag of them will last quite some time

Yes, but have they worked for you?  LOL!!!  I gotta go smallmouth fishing with you!

I hate to be "that guy" but I have to say it... Senko's have been my best producer.  Probably worth mentioning that I fish rivers, not lakes.

I suppose it may be a confidence thing for me now, but I found the 4" and 5" Senko's (usually the BPS brand, actually) in watermelon or pumpkin to be good producers for me when other things aren't working.  They seem to be perfectly weighted to get down and bounce along in the riffles, but work equally well in the deeper pools.  Texas rigged, sometimes with a TINY hook weight on the front of the hook.  Also fish them wacky sometimes, but they get hung up a bit more, and I haven't found the hook-up ratio to be any better for me.

Nice thread. Going to be going down the river on my kayak tomorrow targeting smallies and I was thinking I was about to have to hit up dicks sporting goods after work to pick up some new lures for smallmouths, turns out I have most the things you guys catch them on. Might have to make a trip anyways, no such thing as over prepared.  ;D

When it comes to smallies and plastics, I've found that if it is "small", "wiggly", and "green pumpkin" in color, it will catch plenty of smallies anywhere.  :)

I catch a lot on a Zoom Horny Toad and a 1/8oz Roadrunner with a 3" Grub.

Tube, grub, and jig, in that order.
