Will someone please tell me where these *fighting* smallmouth bass are?
I've caught the damn things in six states now and think their
reputation is over rated (the river bred ones were a little feisty but
nothing like a wild brown). But I keep reading about them so someone
must think it is true.

3) Largemouth bass

You're kidding right?

I know you've fished out this way, so saying "they're over here" wouldn't
satisfy the question. I think you probably just need to quit using your 9wt.

Would I kid you? I've not caught too many LM bass, but the ones I have
caught have been *great* to have on the rod.

I always enjoy getting a bucketmouth on a popper and a 5 weight. Love that
tail dance. And of course it usually happens when I'm fishing with the
kids, which doesn't hurt :-)

You might not believe this, but I don't own a 9wt.

You know that answer ;)

I think any fish, even trash fish, are *great* to have on a rod and
maybe it's because of that short Mass season but catching a LM Bass is
like Redneck Foreplay, ain't nothing there to excite you.

1. Jack Crevalle
2. Bonito
3. Bonefish

I've never hooked a Tarpon, and I've only caught one decent sized Jack,
but it turned my nine weight into a chainsaw.

I guess I'll just have to take your word on that subject. ;-)
