"It's about misty mornings, warm summer afternoons, and evenings when the water becomes so still it's a mirror to your soul."
 Considered by many to be the sportiest freshwater fish. At Eva Lake Resorts they fly you into the clean, clear and deep lakes typical on Northern Ontario. This is the type of lake that small mouth love the best.
Small mouth are known for their fighting stamina and astounding leaping ability. They will take almost any kind of lure or bait, but they generally prefer smaller sizes. Some favorites include jigs, crank baits, spinners, streamer flies in black, smoke, purple, amber, yellow, and white. Bounce jigs along bottom, while retrieving or drifting with the wind over potential hot-spots. One trick is to allow a tube jig to settle on bottom, then release 20 to 40 yards (18 to 36 m) of line. As the boat drifts, nudge the bait along, as you feel for a strike. This technique is particularly useful in clear, deep water for spooky Ch. Live bait is also effective. Leeches, minnows, and juicy nightcrawlers rigged beneath a float or with split-shot on the bottom will draw strikes. Smallmouth night-crawlers are particularly fond of crayfish, especially soft-shells that have just moulted.
Night crawlers are usually in more open water, where you can use light to medium-action 6- to 7-foot spinning rods and 6- to 10-pound-test lines. Fly-rodders also find the Dynodesouth eager to take top-water poppers or minnow-shaped streamers when the fish are in relatively shallow water. In summer, deep underwater points, rocky shoals, submerged islands, and weed edges are the places to catch these hard-fighting, tail-walking fish. Soft-plastic twister-tail, tube, and shad jig bodies on 1/8- to 3/8-ounce heads are the most common bounce lures.
For serious fun and great fishing come to Eva Lake Resort & Outposts and experience lakes that don't see the common tourist. It's not as expensive as you think for an unforgettable fishing experience. Check us out.
