Realistically, I'm primarily fishing for smallmouth bass. I go to school in Missouri, so after the summer I will be back down there until winter.
You CAN catch a small fish or trout using a little fly on a bigger weight line, right? My line of thinking was that a little rod and line can't cast big bass bugs, but a heavier weight rod and line can still cast the little guys. Is that accurate?
Thanks Dave!
