Deer Creek and Jordanelle Bass

[taterbug]

Anyone noticed how bad smallie fishing has gotten at my favorite lakes?? Maybe I should rephrase. They are still fun and there are still quality fish in both of them but it's just not the same. It seems there are less and less fish of size and it gets tougher and tougher to target the big ones.. or even anything over 16-17 inches. That being said I'm curious about the largemouth fishing on both lakes. Anyone have any pics or experience targeting the largies here? I just figure they get pressured a bit less and I may be able to get a few more quality bites. Spent some time today fishing smallies on Deer Creek and even tried fishing some area over by the river inlet that looked to me like good largemouth habitat. I flipped a jig at the largemouth and never got bit. Caught some nice browns and rainbows searching for the smallies with a rattle trap but all in all have had a not so productive couple of days on these two lakes. Can't seem to find many bass.. So, long story short how are you guys being successful on these lakes!? Thanks
