the Baby Bass Steamer

From Peter Charles:
“Wade the shallows of any smallmouth river and we’ll see the shallows are full of young bass. These small fish are a juicy target for bigger fish, including bigger bass. If we fish rivers where smallmouth are abundant, it pays to have some of these in our fly box.”
