Montana Smallmouth Bass
Smallmouth Bass were created to be an angler favorite. They are ferocious predators that pull above their weight class. Smallmouth are good at making themselves at home in most habitats. Lakes, rivers and reservoirs of Montana are home to some robust Smallmouth populations.
Their diet consists of baitfish, crayfish, and both aquatic and terrestrial insects. Because of their huge diet they can be caught on both conventional and fly gear. The fly angler will find success with streamers that mimic fish and crayfish, as well as large grasshopper patters in the heat of the summer. Poppers are the most exiting way to catch Smallmouth and create an unforgettable experience. Conventional gear for Smallmouth is the most efficient way to catch fish.
