Default Best Live Bait For River Smallies

One of the by far best live smallmouth bass baits are helgramites. They are often overlooked by anglers and I have no idea why, they work so well that they are banned in many areas.

If you dont know whether or not they are native to your area Id look into it, if so get out there and pick a few, give em a try the next time the fishing gets tough, they will turn just about any tough smallmouth bass fishing situation into a fish bass catching bonanza!

If you have to buy them, though they are usually pretty expensive, average is around $10.00 per dozen.

We use a crwley bottom or at least thats what I have always heard them called. We use them at Pickwick Lake and fish right off the cat walk below the dam, they are brown kinda like a smallmouth and they suck all the stuff off the botton. They are onlyabout 4in long and man do the smallies love them early in the spring. I will try to find a pic so someone might can give the true name of them.

Thanks,
Brad
