Smallmouth
Bass Features Smallmouth bass are
golden green to bronze with dark vertical bars and blotches on the
side. The upper jaw does not extend beyond the eye. In some
locations, it has a red eye. Somewhat smaller than the largemouth,
smallmouth bass in Oregon may reach 23 inches and exceed 7 pounds.
Smallmouth bass are adapted
to flowing waters and do well in warm streams with deep holes and
rocky ledges. They also prefer lakes and reservoirs with rocky
shorelines and limited vegetation. Adult smallmouth feed mostly on
fish and crayfish.
Tips On How
to Catch Smallmouth Bass Much of what was
written about largemouth bass also pertains to smallmouth. Like
largemouths, smallmouth bass are less active and much harder to
catch when the water temperature is below 50°F. Smallmouth are more
likely to be found where cover consists of rock rather than
vegetation or sunken wood. The best places to look for them are near
rocky points, boulders, ledges, or drop-offs. In the spring they
move inshore in lakes and reservoirs and into the shallows of
streams as the water warms. Spawning activity begins when water
temperatures reach about 58°F. As with largemouth, the male
aggressively guards the nest and fry, making them easier to catch at
this time. Other seasonal behavior is similar to that of largemouth
bass, as are the angling techniques used to catch them, but because
smallmouth are generally smaller, the lures used are also often
smaller. Plastic grubs, crankbaits, and spinners are all effective. Above info obtained
