I'm sitting here a month out from a guys weekend that is taking place on a 2150 acre lake in Maine and all I can think about is catching my first smallie, YES, my first smallmouth bass.  I've been fishing consistently for the past 5-7 years and for some reason the lakes/ponds that I fish in the metrowest area are all largemouth bass.  I know what they look like with all the pics on the internet and they look like they fight a little bit harder from all the YouTube video's but to actually catch one will be an experience.  I will definitely have pics to share, stay tuned.
