Smallie Report

While catfishing, I've gotten more smallmouth this year than usual. Last week I got a 19" very nice smallmouth. It was quite tall from belly to dorsal. It took a while to recouperate in my hands, but eventually it swam off. The catfish lately have been closer to the rocks rather than far out too. They are still biting! But the river is expected to swell up a bit early this week.

Hey Fisherboy...could you teach me where to catch walleye in the summertime? Do you stuff them in your waders all spring and them bring them out for pictures in August? Actually I'm pretty impressed with those summer limits. Incredible.
