sound it out... it's actually 4 words ran together, much like it's said in certain areas of the Mid-West. It's used as an appreciative phrase. Around here you might hear it after you've stopped on the road somewhere near a farm and spent the last 23 minutes helping the farmer get his cattle rounded up and back into their pasture where they belong instead of wandering around the country side looking to cause an accident or something. He would give you the "shuredopresheeadyer" as you're leaving...

Nice smallies!!!!! Did you get them on Winnipesaukee??
-
No on a. 55 acre pond about 15 miles south of winn
-
bkj do you get into a lot of smallie down LA...
Negative on'na Smallies. I went to Michigan in May 2009 to visit my Dad awhile and got my only taste of Smallmouth Bass. I had Smallmouth on the brain so bad for months after that, man my Coffee tasted like Bronze. We don't really get them this far down, aside from maybe a lost loner somewhere.

This ole southern boy has fished in NH. Course it helps that my wife is from there and her mom and dad still live there. Don't have to worry about me visiting again until at least June. Was up there in Jan a few years ago and froze my nads off.
Really nice fish!

Those are some awesome smallies. They are so fun to catch. I always fished Lake Erie for big smallies and we got them till I fished Lake Michigan. I went out at the north end by Green Bay Wis. It was in August and the water was gin clear. We could see 4 and 5 pounders swimming around the bottom in and out of the boulders. The trick was to catch the bigger fish. You can catch two and three pounders till your arms wear out. Since then every time we go up weather is a factor. Be happy if you can fish two of the four days you plan to. But if you can get out it's the best I've ever seen. I believe Bassmaster named that area as one of the best in the world.

To me Dale Hollow is tough. Tried it a few years. Caught some. All those chains of lake through there are really deep and just not what I'm use to. Another great smallmouth spot is Presque Isle Michigan. It's on Lake Huron with the same gin clear water and really big smallmouth. As you can tell I like to travel a bit and try out new waters.

what are some of your go to baits for them

what are some of your go to baits for them
In Michigan and Huron I just flip a tube. There are so many of them they fight over it so it doesn't matter. At Lake Erie I drop shot a fluke or a gulp minnow. My favorite lake of all is Lake of the Woods and Rainy Lake in Minn. And not because of size but just because of the fishing and the scenery. There I use just a small white spinnerbait. There you will catch a mix of small and largemouth that are football shape and will fight till the end. At the end of the day there you can toss in 20 northerns, 2 musky's and a hand full of walleyes to go with your 100 bass you caught. And then add in you saw three or four eagles, an otter, a flock of pelican and a moose or two you've had a great day.

My local crappie lake has a decent smallie population. In the spring when the ice is just starting to loosen its grip and my shore spot opens up I can get some of the biggest smallies that live in the lake. The crappies like this "first open water" and the smallies move right up on shallow rip-rap on shore only 15 feet from the deep crappie spot. The smallie season is closed at this time so I have to fish with nothing but crappie plastics but those smallies don't mind much and don't pay any mind to when the season is supposed to start. It gives a guy a little shock when one of the 4 pound bronzebacks decides that a paddletail is good food, especially on the three and 4 pound lines I use.
Lamar....I have fished Door County for smallies near the Sturgeon Bay Lighthouse along the break water wall. Its something to be cranking in a medium diver and see that black torpedo zero in on the bait. Fun stuff up there.

I've been there. My mom when she was alive loved lighthouses. Didn't fish that trip but my guess it's all the same up the coast. I think the closest I've been to you is the last year she was alive I took her to Grand Marias and stay in a cottage to over look Lake Superior. My wife and I drove up the gunflint trail and hiked many of the trails in the area. Very pretty area.
