About Kings Sport & Tackle

Small and Largemouth bass fishing is in full summer mode currently on the Russian. Fishing unweighted Senkos near cover with shade is the key to finding the bite. It is key in the lower Russian to get in a kayak or canoe and fish the deep edges of the river around rock outcrops and log structure. Once there fish soft plastics, swimbaits and jigs. Another good way to cover water in between spots is to troll diving plugs like Rebel Crawfish. Typical smallies are in the 1-2 lb range with your largemouth 2-4.
For the fly enthusiast fish the same water but use a sinking tip line with streamer patterns such as wooly buggers, zonkers, muddler minnows, and crawfish imitations. Let it sink deep then strip!
