[cool][#0000ff]See, it helps to pay attention in class...and to have a good memory. Glad you guys were able to get into some action.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]The bass with "no markings" are likely smallmouth. Some have more color than others. As a rule, they are bronze or brownish colored. Largemouths are easy to identify by comparison. They usually have a greenish tinge and a black stripe or series of black splotches down the lateral line along the sides.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I gotta warn you guys though. As the water drops up there, the fishing will change. Within a month or so, there will be no fish in the real shallow water and you have to hunt harder to find them. Still lots of them in that area, but in deeper water. The same tactics will work though, so once you find them you can usually catch them.[/#0000ff]
