I have two thoughts here as a father of two boys who are now men.
First, if you are catching plenty of good size smallmouth bass keep fishing for them. They are a lot more fun to catch.
Second, if you still want to fish for salmon, hire a guide and learn as much as you can during the trip. What you will likely find is that you will troll a couple lines out the back of the boat on down riggers and catch a few fish each night. What that essentially means is that you take turns catching them. If you think they are bored fishing for bass then this will take it to the next level.
Just my personal experience. Good luck either way. It’s still fun regardless of the kids being bored.
