Its Smallmouth Time
The fall topwater bite for the smallies is on big time. I have been fishing the Susqy weekly for most of the spring and summer with good success. Wolpacks of smallmouth aggressively chasing bait fish have appeared. Yesterday I ran into 5 groups of large fish feeding. I only caught a couple of fish below 16" yesterday as I was hog hunting throwing only topwater. When I found the packs I was able to pick 2 or 3 out each one. I had 7 fish over 19", 8 18", and many 17s. It was not a numbers day, but the quality was there. Get out there and enjoy for the next couple of weeks.
