Its Smallmouth Time

[fishingmortgageman]

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.

A 19" Smallie is a very good fish, to have multiple must have been awesome. I'll be on the Big D tonight into tomorrow targeting Walleye as usual, but if they aren't biting I will have to switch over to Smallies.

I know that the Delaware is very low as is the Susqy. Many of my big fish were found in very shallow water of less than a foot. Do not be afraid to throw in very skinny water. Good luck
