I spent a week on the Penobscot river just above Bangor, and they were only
hitting crawfish colored jigs and crankbaits (light brown) on the river. In
the backwaters they killed a small white spinnberbait. As far as topwater we
mostly used flyrods and they ate up silver and white poppers with a small
amount of tail feathers. You could use something like a rebel POP-R on a
spinner also. Good Luck. We caught so many smallies I was actually tired
after four days. Great fishing in Main.

I am going to Maine next week to fish for smallies and I was wondering if
anyone can recommend what to use for topwater?
