Deep Creek Lake Smallmouth Bass and Rock Bass

Type: Nontidal
Region: Western
Location: Deep Creek Lake

Now is primetime for catch and release fishing for Smallmouth Bass in Deep Creek Lake � try fishing topwater lures, plastic tubes (fished weightless), or streamers along boulder-strewn shorelines for the best action. Rock bass also known as Red-eyes are also very aggressive this time of year, and you will catch them in the same rocky habitat. I had a blast last evening fly-fishing with this wool-bodied streamer and caught several scrappy Smallmouths in the 10 � 12 inch range and lots of Rock Bass.
