Ok, so I just got back from my trip. We left at about 6:30am and got out to Shenandoah River State Park at about 8am. The total between the four of us was 12 smallmouth bass and 5 sunfish. I went out and got some ZOOM plastics last night and most of the fish were caught on ZOOM watermelon seed colored 6'' lizards. I also caught the biggest fish on a plastic worm. My friend caught about 5 smallies on a lead headed tube with a skirt. I tried out some crayfish plastics and some of the gulp grubs but neither worked very well. The lizards were amazing so I stuck with them in a texas rig with a sinker right above the hook. I caught the biggest of the group at 11" but unfortunately we had to release all of them because 11-14 inches must be released. I caught most of the fish under trees along the side of the river adjacent to a huge series of rock formations. I did a lot of wading and a lot of falling in the water, but it was a ton of fun.
