Bass Fishing
 

Have the Smallmouths started to move in yet?

Water Temp will dictate. What is the water temp today?

I am seeing low to mid 50s on this site. We are in for a week starting Saturday.

Yes, I caught a smallmouth a couple days ago while trolling near shore.

I believe the State of New Hampshire shuts down Bass Tournaments from May15th to June 15th because of the spawning season. This would be a very good indication of when they are shallow and on beds for the most part. Not all, but enough for you to have a fun day of family fishing. Shallow on beds.

When the Smallies are on beds, you'll be able to throw a number of different baits to catch them. Running from a Kitchen Sink to a Mailbox to a Spare Tire. Usually just senkos will do. (Rubber worm)

Forth year
 

Coming up the week of may 16. Any news on water temp or bass yet? I think we are going to be a little early.

Water temp was 47 degrees this morning in open water...We did get some rain late yesterday so that could have cooled things down a little...
