Both.
They can overlap , but smallies usually inhabit cleaner and colder water.
We have older classification lakes with largemouth. Some of the slower older rivers too.
But have younger (type more than actual age) waters smallies do good in.
And they can be in the great lakes to.
(Some areas super for them.)
Didn't weight or measure my biggest smallie. Dad took it home to eat. Came out of a lake with largemouth , and I didn't expect it.
Easy to claim it was around 6 pounds.
My biggest largemouth recalled weighed was around 5.5.

I'm always getting tips and clues and leads to check out from my friends and acquaintances. So I had an Iraq war veteran come and give me a very specific X on a map....the claim, and I believe it 100% is that he found 3 large gold spanish money chain links !! This was large long 10+foot chains the spanish dons an nobility would have made to carry there wealth tax free from the New world to Europe. Coinage and bullion was taxed so the wealthy made jewelry to avoid taxation on there return to the old world. So this close friend takes my phone and puts a mark in my Google earth treasure files !! This guy has multi digit combat kills and several from close hand to hand.....he is not into treasure, and he does not lie. He told me he picked them up and immediately thought of me, and knew I would probably be the only guy that might be able to get to this most remote of island locations !! So I immediately pass the info on to my bahamian friends who I trust and can check the spot !! Well this one is closer to Cuba than Florida and no one has gotten to it yet....
Now for the crazy sh.t......I have played with Google earth from the day it was available to the public. I've made great discoveries time, and time again by observing the changing conditions of the islands and there surrounding waters.....I have hundreds of wrecks that I've discovered from space.....and now a brand new one !! 230 feet from a known gold treasure piece is what can only be described as an incredible ship wreck recently exposed from sand erosion and now visible on some sat imagery.....im cross checking this with other sat imagery sites, and my God man !! This is incredible, here it is !!
Dropped pin to the left is known spanish gold !! Pin to the right is definitely a shipwreck in very shallow water, and very similar in position, condition, and sand coverage to the "baltic" in eluthera. Watching Google for years, and waiting for those updated pics is what it's about.....every update I check the surrounding waters to see if they've changed.....there's been a big change here and a shipwreck has been briefly uncovered....it may be resanded on the next image update. This one will shoot to the top of the check list now.....and maybe I can get back with fuel funds to go check this one.....arrangements are being made !! This is a good one !! Im overwhelmed with excitement !!
Zoom in on the first image....thats a wreck for sure !!

Bart, off the western most tip of Andros is a small island called, “Gold Cay”. Any significance to that name?

I believe wreckage from a galleon on the bank actually made it all the way to andros, and this may have some bearing on the name....there are many gold key, cays, and rocks !! I wonder about name origins for all of them. One down here in the Florida keys has had the name removed from modern charts, and gold key is only known to a few of us from older map sources !! Most keys, cays, islands, and rocks get there namesake from past events and history, so anything with a gold connotation is worth a check !!
