I honestly believe a person could catch more smallmouth per day from American. But because of the huge population of rock bass the lake has, many times they get to the bait before the bass has a chance. But the real difference between Tapps and American lake is the size of the smallmouth. I can't remember the last time I caught four 3 lb smallmouth in one day. And American Lake has much bigger smallmouth than that. Did you see the photo of the 7-1 smallmouth caught there earlier this year? That's huge on any lake.

I keep waiting for some body to list a house for rent on Airbnb.com so I can make a weekend out of it. Yes, I did see that monster. Biggest one I have seen posted on here in the few years I have beer. watching these reports.
