The problem with Smith is the herring the bass are chasing and eating are 3 to 5 inches. I live 30 minutes from the dam and it's really hard to get them eat anything over 5 inches this time of year. The spring though, that's when the 6 to 8in baits slay.
Reminds me alot of Lake Oroville. I caught most spots on an underspin 2.8 kitech. Minnow woulda been better I guess. Thanks for the cool video dude! Much love from NorCal❤😊
Growing up on herring lakes here in SC you had EVERYTHING tied up that could get you paid except a weighted TX rigged fluke & a top water crawler! Which all these techniques we learned about from West coast hammers mostly. Summer spotted bass eat the most out of season crap sometimes but you can’t beat the minnow and it gets better mid day. Just have to follow the schools 😅
Me & my son went fishing at Smith lake man the fish there are unreal they wouldn't bite for anything you could see em and I tried everything and they wouldn't bite anything at all
Hey Daniel, I will include these in upcoming vids but shallow FL strain in the summer love faster pace baits either on top or around grass/brush. Buzzbaits, frogs, and ploppers are my favorite. But faster retrieved swimjigs in bluegill colors and large 10-12” Texas rigged worms around grass or brush are hard to beat in the summer!
@@Zaldaingerous ya everyone has different experience on these lakes they change so much and with spots its challenging for sure I actually fished a lot at that lake and I catch dinks for the most part but I have randomly stumbled on some real big largemouth that's the reasoning. I never been to McClure I need to check it out obviously coming from you
Those spotted bass are a lot more hardy than you think. I’ve seen them literally beach themselves trying to eat bait at Smith so I don’t think 20 seconds out of the water is anything new to them 😂

Keep up the hard work and dedication bro! Thank you for making these vids.
Some unique baits man thinking outside the box and having fun while doing it
Thank you for all your knowledge Zaldain!

Haven’t finished the whole thing yet but had to comment. Looks like a bunch of Folsom spots, that’s awesome.
Chris I love the content! The Daingerous is amazing, I’ve been smoking Large Heads on the TVA with it all year
Thanks Chris. Great video.

They were picky about size!
Great video as usual!! I must admit, i like watching the videos of the tournaments where you get paid...😂
lol same!!! These livescope / spinning rod vids are monotonous at times but there’s always something to learn!!
Those steaks looked delicious 😋 fantastic video 👍
Another great vid.
I used to live in the slough on the other side of the tunnel you went through. Big bass in there in the back in all the brush

what rods are you using for the new LTS reel, or have you played with it yet?

They are definitely smart!
Chris, did you have that spoon on braid to swivel to floro leader?
Hey Chris...could you maybe do a video on best baits for shallow summertime Florida strain! That woukd be awesome.

Why do you think they were hanging out above/on top of the bait?
triple trout 5 inch on the bridge pilings
no melones mention i know you cant mention them all but ohh my
Right!? Hey I'm glad he mentioned Berryessa lol. No love for Sonoma either 😅
@@danielkinn782 I'm surprised he mentioned anything california besides the delta LOL
I preferred to fish McClure when I was out that way
@@Zaldaingerous oh good choice. No love for Bullards?

Giving up the darter head ? Dude ! shhhh

What is that little grill you’ve got ?

FFS needs to go away immediately
Why do you guys keep the fish out of the water for so long? No respect for the poor fish.
