Have not fished for smallmouth much- but the 2 days I have in the last week specifically I have not had much luck on top.
Granted the day on yough- I used buggers exclusively so maybe based on 1 days observation could not get one on top but they were more than willing with deaddrifting buggers under.
I did fish a popper and a couple similiar flies on top- nothing. But in the same spot I dead drifted a bugger and wham.
Or is it not that simple. Like trout fishing?
Any insight on this limited experience? Thanks in advance, Paul.
