smallies like rocky bottoms with some current, look for areas of a lot of structure like trees, drop offs, and rock piles. back water (eddies) near faster current is a prime spot
most smallies are caught on typical bass baits: spinner baits, jerk baits, plastics, jigs, etc. but can be caught on almost anything else- i've caught them bobber fishing for panfish.
use lighter gear if possible ( makes it a lot of fun when fighting). i like a 6'6" medium action spinning rod with 6-8 lb. line
