Dez,
For smallies in open water, throw a Yamamoto Senko, Kut Tail or Shad Shape Worm on a wacky jig. The wacky jig increases the inherent action of the soft plastic and gives it a faster fall. You can thank me later.....
I can't stress this enough, get your follow up bait back out there as quickly as possible. My experience has been that your chances of catching the fish go down exponentially after about 5-8 seconds.
In lake where smallies are fishing on kokanee, I will follow with a weightless wacky Senko - black w/ silver fleck. Once it hit the water, I will swim it 3 - 4 twitches and then let it die for 4 seconds or so. Another approach is to follow with a smaller bait - say follow a stick bait with a smaller popper style.
