Lake Jacksonville Gibbons Creek Lake Athens Lake Fork Lake Bastrop Now if I can just make to half of them, I'll be a happy camper.

skid/flip,
If you don't mind me asking. What is your approach when catching smallies at Whitney in a yak? I'm only an hour away from that beautiful big lake and would love to give it a try. I've caught thousands of largemouths and trout but never a bronzeback.

slo-cal,do a river trip below the dam.Or put in at Dicks outpost and go up river a mile or two.If you dont catch a smally there they aint biting.A funny story,a friend of mine was about at the point Im talking about doing a trip from the dam,and about a three pounder jumped into the canoe and hit him in the chest.It fell in the canoe.He took pictures and released it.Isaw the fish,it was great.
Canoes, too, are unobtrusive; they don't storm the natural world or ride over it, but drift in upon it as a part of its own silence. (John Graves)

Thx coopperhead. A float trip sounds great. Smaller baits probably would work best. 4" worms,small grubs,in-line spinners should all be good baits. I will give Dick's a call. March-May I would think is the best months.

I've never been to Whitney, but it's the closest place to me with smallmouth. I want to give it a shot this year.
