Our good friend Colin McKeown of The New Fly Fisher and his associates invest a lot time going after huge smallmouth bass. Although topwater fishing is more aesthetically interesting, more actually huge bronzebacks are captured on banners, and Colin shares his 5 favorites:
- Hud’s Bushwacker, size 2/0
- CK Baitfish, size 4
- White Woolly Bugger, sizes 4 and 6
- Clouser Minnow, sizes 2 and 4
- Scottys McFly, sizes 4 and 6
So the next time you’re going after huge smallies, make certain you have actually got a few of these on hand.
