Gitzits are great baits for smallmouth, I use them all the time in Arkansas, and had similar luck in the BWCA. You can order them from Cabela's, Bass Pro, or generally most any bait shop now carries them, even Wal-Mart. My favorite colors are smoke red flake, Crawdad brown with green flakes, or green (motoroil) with red flakes. I fish them two ways, on a 1/8 oz jig head I make myself with a 3/0 hook, or use a 3/0 Shaw Grigsby Keeper Hook, (has a little clip on the end to hold the gitzit on) and a 1/8 oz, slip sinker. Fish it just like a worm, move it a little and jiggle it. Many times you will not feel the bite so watch your line too. Good luck...
