Hit Monksville Reservoir Monday night aiming for Walleyes. Unfortunately we didn't catch any 'eyes, but were pleasantly surprised by an awesome Smallmouth and Largemouth bite.
Got on the water shortly after sunset. Within 10 minutes, I hooked up with a monster 7" Sunny. While sunnies aren't bad, big fish are what we want. At about 11:30pm, I hooked up with my first Smallmouth, which measured 16". Within the next few hours, I hooked up with two more smallies, the biggest being a solid 18". I also added two Largemouths, the bigger being 15". My buddy landed 1 Sunny and 1 smallie that measured at 14". All fish were caught on jointed floating Rapalas, except for the biggest Largemouth, which was caught on a big floating stickbait Rapala.
