Abstract:

Many fishermen consider the smallmouth bass to be the most desirable freshwater game fish. Its vertical bars along its sides and distinct eye stripes differ from the largemouth bass which has a blotchy, horizontal stripe down its side. Cornell discusses the smallmouth's habitat, life history, and importance as a game fish.
