Smallmouth Bass are amazing fish and I wanted to show
them in all their magnificence, in a very high quality underwater HD
video.I’ve looked at many videos of
Smallmouth Bass and none of them truly convey the grace and beauty of this fish
and the stunning splendor of their underwater habitat.This is my video tribute to Smallmouth
Bass.I hope you enjoy it.
By autumn, some lakes have developed mats of filamentous algae on the lake floor. This tapestry provides cover for crayfish, sculpins and darters who can move around undetected.... they think. During this time, bass (both largemouth and smallmouth) will form large schools, roaming the lake floor looking for the smallest movement that would give away the location of their prey. These "wolf packs", or pods of bass that hunt together are always on the move and patrol the same areas on a daily basis, almost like a milk run. It's believed by tournament bass fisherman that September is a key time when wolf-packs form. In this HD underwater video, you'll see how wolf-packs of bass hunt. (Engbretson Underwater Video.)
