A big day of smallmouth, Juniata River
Saturday, May 6th, 2006
My son and I headed out to the Juniate River today to test our gear and some new baits. In 3 hours of fishing we landed 11 smallmouth bass included this 18.5 inch beast. Yes folks it was measured by my de-liar. Most fish were in the 14-15 inch ranged. My son lost a fish just as big as the one pictured above at then end of a hard fought battle. The fish came unbuttoned just 1 foot from the boat. The consolation prize for my son was that he out fished me 6-5. Typically, when he out fishes me, I send him for a little swim when he’s not looking. Today the water as a little on the cold side and there was a little wind chill so I cut him a break….this time!
