I LOVE catching smallmouth bass, and I call 'em smallies. They are ferocious fighters, got way more fight in them than largemouth. Give me a smallie anytime.
Indian River, the little NY river that my camp property backs up to, has a lot of smallmouth. I guess your best bait (if not using artificials) is crayfish, but I mostly fish with grass toads. Toss those things into the right spot and they disappear in a small explosion. Wish I was there with a line in the water right now.
