Unfortunately, targeting Smallmouth Bass near Hemphill, Texas will be challenging. Smallmouth prefer cooler, clear water environments typically found further north. While theoretically possible, due to stocking efforts, it is highly unlikely you will find a viable Smallmouth population in Toledo Bend or surrounding areas. If you are set on bass fishing, focus your efforts on the abundant Largemouth and Spotted bass populations instead. Their populations are much more robust and better suited to the local environment.
