This one hit right at my feet! Able to grab my net and land it. Measure a solid 35 inches, not bad for the 5th of the year.

During early spring look for calm areas if you're fishing for smallmouth on the river, and to look for eddies and flooded areas with brush or lawdowns as they could hold fish. Also throw baitfish related such as crawfish patterns, red, shad patterns, and even chartreuse if the water is really muddy.
