I need to trade off a largemouth trip next year for a smallmouth one. I'm sure it's not like Mexico but I could put someone on 5+ largemouths all day long. I've never really caught a smallmouth bigger than something you use for bait in a north TX lake.
I'm away from home now and only had a pic left on the mantle form eons ago on Rayburn. Partner got hung up and I caught both of those off the same stump while he tried to get free.
So much for being back ended.
