My best wishes and prayers for you and your wife and family! Hope to still hang with you some day.
Thanks for the tips! I've never really fished for smallies before. Largemouth had always been my primary target, but I imagine small mouth bass are not TOO different. Did all my fishing back when I lived in Texas. Since coming to WI I have only been on ONE fishing trip, and that was up into Canada for a week of nailing Walleyes and Northern. It was a great experience, though very different than fishing bass in the south. Absolutely stunning scenery up there though!
