- So as of lately I've noticed a few people keeping and eating Smallmouth bass so I decided to Shoot a Catch and Cook Smallmouth video of my own. I did not keep anything big and never would. I choose a small one that I deep hooked to keep. I also caught a few nice bonus fish including a real nice walleye. If you like what you see please drop a Sub!!

I love small mouth, especially breaded and fried with some hot sauce oooooooh
I caught a 6 pounder in 55 degree water today. Gonna try!
I catch and fillet dozen's of smallies a year, good eats, which is why I fish.
Anyone who says you shouldn't keep a smallie dosen't own a stocked lake.
I hear ya brother. I love keeping the occasional smallmouth. They’re delicious.
Samuel Nekvasil Much better than large mouth. Good flavor.
No mystery here. They’re very tasty. I keep them often. As long as you follow the regs you shouldn’t negatively affect the population. Keep if they’re legal and follow the rules.
13-15inch Bass are good eating anything over is fishy /muddy
I pretty much stick with 12-14, so the same ballpark, and only when the water is a reasonable temperature. That way, every one is super delicious.
So I found out the other day some Smallmouth season is actually closed. I was unaware of the season and I called the CO myself. Fortunately since I stepped forward he let me off with just a warning that was very kind of him and I appreciate it!
I'm glad you mentioned that, because I'm going to bwca next week. Good to know the regs.
@@theinvasivespecies1119 I believe you can still keep them up there. You'll need to check the regs. North or hwy 53 you still can
Wow, wow, that could have been a expensive fish dinner. Lol.... way to own up to it. But we all know that's your stile. Great job and great video.
@@gordongietek9104 i did.... but that's who i am!
I handline fish for rock bass and smallmouth in indiana a lot and rarely pass up on a legal sized smally for the pan. A personal favorite for my area
No problem with cool water smallies. They,re tasty. Nice multi species day. Can you do a Pike fillet how to vid sometime. Thanks
You can tell he's from the midwest cuase of his accent)🤣
Great catch and cook video. I occasionally keep a smallmouth or two for the frying pan but only when the water has cooled off. I spent 30 yrs fishing the big muddy in Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin fishing bass and particularly smalls. Great fish but I would never eat one from the Mississippi. They are a true mud flavor compared to lakes or cleaner running rivers. I can't wait for hard water and fishing them thru the ice. Looking forward to your ice fishing and trapping vids. The trapping vids bring me back to my trapping days. Can't do it anymore due to medical issues so I changed hobbies and professions to customer rod building and repair. New ballgame and I set my own hours. Have a great week!!
What rig were you using? Did you have a flouro leader?
Yes I was. A lindy rig
Looking to do the same. I here good things about bass
I wanna try them. Looking forward to it. Thanks for the video
You're welcome!
Good eating
i have been eating bass all my life ...great tasting fish ...i think americans watch to many bass tournaments where they don't keep the fish
I feel small mouth are quite good. I go to the BWCA all the time and they are really excellent up there in those waters that are so clean.
Got to keep the middle of the road bass, otherwise there will be too much competition for big ones. Every avid bass angler should practice selective harvest if they care about the sport.
Shhhhh now everyone is going to eat them! 😂
Thanks for your video. Honnestly, I don't understand what would be the problem with keeping and eating that fish. Here, where I live, some stupid guys dropped a few of them in our river, where small mouths were not living. Those small mouths have eaten everything, so now, we are stuck with those, and they are considered trash fish. Same thing with muskies. We have too many of them, they are now a major problem. (The reason why it is illegal to bring live fish with us...)
Never seen your content but good stuff and great video!
Wow, I'd love to live in your neck of the woods. Great fishing all year round. Having trouble getting in touch with 3 northern jigs, I heard they may be out of business. I'd love to get some of those vipers. Do you have any insight?
Honestly I'm not sure whats going on either with them. Sorry
Finnaly a samllie
Nice Video
Have wondered myself. Was that a free floating rig minnow on a hook ?
That was. Bullet sinker with a bead above an Spro swivel. Then 10lb floro to a plain red hook
Nice👍
But I will keep some if bass guys are watching 😃 nothing like making them cry about *their* tournament fish!
People who eat bass dont know how to catch walleyes. But hey, if your gonna do it, eat the little ones and leave beds alone. Nice work on this video
Thanks!! I myself catch tons of walleyes and other better eating fish. But thought I'd try this video on a small one to see how they tasted. I love catching smallies and letting them all go. I got a pretty good smallie video up from this spring if you'd like to check it out. Thanks for watching!
LOL funny !!!! They all for catching and eating .... Walleye are just as easy .......
Paul Nelson walleyes are boring all around
I can't catch walleye in Nova Scotia thanks.
Bass are more fun to catch and the 12-14" ones are delicious. Not everyone loves the taste of walleye. I prefer sunfish, perch, northern pike and crappie. If the water is cold and the bass is 12-13", I usually prefer the taste of bass too. Still, nothing beats a bluegill. They it is just a pain to clean 5-6 for a meal instead of 1 walleye.
Smallies are the business! You just need Alittle red wine vinegar mix with soy sauce to dip it in! You would have been doing backflips!
Pike and pickerel are 1000x better.. bass is ass lol
Got so sick of bass in the last few years.. stopped keeping them
Hope to watch u stick a deer with the bow an arrow
Im definitely gonna give it a shot!
I did last year couldnt find it tho packed its wound pretty good
All fish is good if prepared right. I just rather catch them for the sport I've ate one before and it was good. to each his own if it's legal I just preffer eating other fish. Awesome video as always man
It didn't taste bad at all but like you said theres much better fish to eat. It the only smallie I'll ever keep and eat myself
1
not me just because it takes 5yrs for the fish to reach a lb,,love the fun to much and better fish to eat
Actually it depends on the lake. A 5 yr old can be 17 or 18 inches if the lake is fertile enough. Just like a bluegill. A 10" one is generally 10yrs old be some lakes around here they grow that size in 5.
