| Sled, I don't fish for smallies but I can understand why they would be fun on topwater. Last summer I was fishing a Klack buzz bait over a thick weed bed and what had to be at least a four pound smallie rocketed out of the water on one side of the lure, went 2 feet or more in the air, did a 180 and landed on the other side, never touching the lure. I couldn't help but laugh, it was so fun to see. There was a family fishing for panfish in a nearby boat and one of the kids had seen the fish and shouted out, "that was cool!". Couldn't have agreed more. |

You should try them on a fly rod. They're the "fightingest" fish ever and my very favorite... |
