Columbia River Fall Smallmouth Bass

[@MichaelGile19]

I'm with Tom on that crayfish pro cure

[@Benjamin-qr3yx]

Any recommendations as to the tackle ? How much weight do you usually use, on average, on that stretch of the river? 👍

Thank you!

Being resident fish, are the Columbia smallmouths in the area they're fishing good and safe to eat?

[@Nik-gh6gz]

Being smallmouth, no

[@pancakeface5717]

@@Nik-gh6gz Bummer. Thanks. Gotta believe they eat plenty of salmon smolts.

[@Nick.smb.Outdoors]

@@pancakeface5717 yeah they’re safe to eat . I know plenty of people who will keep 2-3 a trip and make fish tacos with the fillets.

@@pancakeface5717PNW people are so dramatic when it comes to thinking everything is trying to get their salmon and steelhead. The Columbia is full of crawfish, sculpin, and shad. The fish I catch barf that stuff up, not smolts.

Is the 331 a color that's made anymore? Can't find it.

[@danielchangar2804]

Same here. Looks like it was possibly called "coke" but it is not on the chart anymore.

Hey Justin, why don’t you film a episode on Horseshoe Lake or the Lower Columbia River?

[@AnglerWestTV]

I have plans for the lower Columbia soon. I'll work on Horseshoe. Been some great fish caught in there lately. Would be fun.

@@AnglerWestTV you should watch Outdoor GPS and other programs, they don’t give specific locations, they generalize their locations. Please work on that Justin, thank you

Also, try vertical jigging a Sonic BaitFish.

That's a bassmaster hook set
