Hi new here to the board and I have to say it's really amazing how much I have learnned just from this thread. I do a lot of Smallmouth fishing in Ontario (NWO) where a lot of the lakes are clear,cold and deep with a lot of rocky structer. My personal best bait I use a Zoom OLE MONSTER HEAY SALT WORM in either anything with red flakes in it or a Watermelon color. I just hook them throuh the nose flip it out and let it sink and then reel in with a stop and go motion. It's hard to believe how a smallie will take a 10 1/2 inch bait in one gulp. These baits were bought to take down to use on Pickwick or Wilson lake in ALabama but trip got cancelled so I tried them in Canada and have been using ever since up there. Biggest smallie to date is 7.12lbs. In 40 days I'm headed back up there to fish the AYA and the SSS Tournaments.

3 or 4 inch curly tail grubs with a 1/4 or 3/8 ounce jig head, depending on current, in either black, yellow, or clear with black flake works for me. Also, for me personally, I seem to do better with chartreuse jigheads for whatever reason.

[progressivefishing]

5" hula grub on a football jig if fishing rocks and the cray fish are active. If not a brown or brown/red crank bait. Thats about as simple as I can make it, however I always seem to over think it... I think most of us do when it comes to fishing. haha

Close second is Case Plastics 3 3/4 inch Sinkin Salty Minnow on GAM WG size 2 Finesse hook (nose hooked for that sweet action of course)! Also the Hellgramite from Case Plastics is like candy to smallies, early spring you can catch one every cast.

First let me say I exclusively fish for size...that being said:

1. yamamoto double tail hula grub (brown grape blk flk) on a 1/4 oz strike king shakyhead football jighead

2. Strike King Tour Grade Finesse Jig (Watermelon with red flk) with uncle Josh #11 pork trailer (trailer depends on hatch color and water color

3. a distant third; Yamamoto 4" senko (outperforms the imitators by far--but very pricey if bite is hot)
