Smallmouth Bass
If you're looking for Smallmouth Bass near Flordell Hills, Missouri, your best bet is heading to the Meramec River or the Big River. These rivers offer classic smallmouth habitat with rocky bottoms, clear water, and plenty of riffles and pools. Spring and fall are the prime times, when the water temperatures are ideal for smallmouth activity. Summer can also be productive, especially early in the morning or late in the evening. A key to success is using lures that imitate crayfish or minnows, as these are the primary food sources for smallmouth in these rivers. A local's trick is to wade fish the rivers, focusing on rocky areas and current breaks. Be aware of water levels, as they can fluctuate quickly after rain events. The smallmouth in these rivers are known for their aggressive strikes and acrobatic fights.
