Your probably not losing your touch, it's more likely that whats happening in this video is taking place all over the lake.

If I had to guess the rock bass by there shear numbers are taking over every bit of available habitat and eating everything in sight and pushing the smallmouth into less than favorable places. For now as fisher-men and women we might only be seeing this affect the smallmouth because they generally inhabit the same places in the water column. I'm not sure what the future will be if they expand there range into other areas of the lake and start feeding on things that support the cold water species in the lake.
