smallmouth,17in and fat.what a great looking smallmouth.i start casting again and right away another fish on,its another smallmouth.this on was not as big,maybe 14in but still a great looking fish.took a few mins to take a few
sips of coffee and start casting again.about 30mins gose by and bam!! i'm tight again,this time another shad.all fished released.i was using chartruse
darts with white bucktail.the river is clear and running perfect.
