I heard the DNR doesn’t allow smallmouth to be weighed in at bass tournaments they permit out of leech. This will probably change once the walleye population plummets. Then they will up the limit on smallies to appease the walleye bumpkins.
That is incorrect. For the past few years, nearly all of the early season tourneys on Leech have been won by huge bags of smallies. I’m fishing one on Sunday, and I will be shocked if the Tuma/Ahlstrom or Winkka/Foster team doesn’t win it with smallies again.
I’m going to spend all of my prefishing time Saturday looking for SMB – I’ve caught a few and have a pretty good idea where to look. They’re in there, and there are some big girls.
Buzz, will you be fishing in that tourney by chance?
