  • Location & Habitat: Smallmouth bass are native to the Tennessee River drainage. They have been unsuccessfully introduced into Lake Lewis Smith and the Cahaba, Coosa, and upper Tombigbee rivers. Smallmouth bass inhabit clear, small to medium-sized streams, rivers, and reservoirs. They favor such underwater structures as rock outcrops, logs, treetops, and constructed riprap walls. Spawning usually occurs in April and May, when water temperatures reach 59º to 63ºF .
  • Biology: Smallmouth feed primarily on small fishes, crayfishes, and insects. Small Mouth Bass have life spans of six to 14 years in southern and northern populations. Smallmouth bass make nests with their tails in about 3 to 8 feet of water. They prefer a sand/small gravel bottom to do this in. There is an interesting mating dance of rubbing and biting that takes place before eggs are laid. The male makes the nest and guards it. After mating is complete, the female is evicted and she may go on to mate again with other males. Dad watches the kids for about 2 weeks then they all split. When the water temperature rises to about 50 to 55 degrees this reproductive activity starts.
  • Physical Description: The dorsal fin on the smallmouth bass is distinctly separated and contains nine to 11 spines and 13 - 15 rays. The anal fin has three spines and 10 or 11 rays. The bases of the soft dorsal and anal fins are covered with scales. The complete lateral line has 68 - 80 scales. The mouth is relatively large, with the upper jaw almost reaching the rear margin of the eye. The eye may have a reddish tint. Smallmouth bass lack the characteristic black stripe or jointed, lateral black blotches found on largemouth bass and spotted bass. Instead, the back and sides are bronze to olive green, with many irregularly spaced dark spots. The venter is generally white in small individuals, becoming dusky with age. Young smallmouth bass have several vertically oriented dark blotches along their sides that usually fade with age
