RE: Creek smallmouth
Use a bigger bait
Check out my other post[8D]
In all honesty, using bigger baits may be the answer. If you can get them, try using shiners or walleye minnows instead of a regular sized crappie minnow. Otherwise start throwing some hardware at them. You'll get a list of about 1000 lures that everyone here prefers, so to start it off:
1. Inline spinners - always a good bet, deadly effective and very versatile. I like white Roostertails and the Mepps Comet
2. Original rapala - silver/black, bronze/black, and white/blue are the colors you'll probably here about the most. Another very versatile and effective lure.
3. Float and Fly - small bucktail jig under a real sensitive bobber. It's a finesse technique that produces a TON of fish. Look here for technique details >>>---------------> http://www.floatandfly.com/
So with that being said, take notes You'll get a lot more lure suggestions thrown at you.
