Sight fishing for Smallies

A great day on the water catching surfacing smallmouth and a variety of other species.

Could you please tell me your put in and take out points on the river? And how long a float trip that is? Thank you so much for your videos!

[@mrgldsmth]

We normally put in at Redmond Dam and take out at Barnard park. It usually takes about 4 hours. Good luck

What's with the long rods guys? Do they cast further? Too fun watching your float!

[@mrgldsmth]

I like the longer casting rod, especially the Duckett rods. More sensitivity, fast action for longer casts and most importantly to me anyway is the ease of getting lures unhung. Usually one snap of the line and I'm back to fishing without losing a $15.00 lure every time. Fishing in a moving raft and competing for the best spots with my brother makes all of those very important. Thanks for watching.

What's the name of that kayak

[@mrgldsmth]

It is a 9.5’ NRS raft.
