When it comes to strength, fight and acrobatics, smallmouth bass are considered top tier, behind only steelhead and atlantic salmon (really!). Smallmouth bass are more often found in deeper lakes and reservoirs where water temperatures stay cooler, and in moving waters such as the Columbia, Willamette, South Umpqua and John Day rivers. ![]() “Smallies," on the other hand, are slightly smaller than largemouth bass (Oregon state record is a little under nine pounds), tend to hang out in schools, and prefer cooler, clearer water.
