flg2010 Posted September 17, 2017 Posted September 17, 2017 Smallmouth are biting, I am having the best luck on Keitech custom worms. I caught a bunch of fish but the two best for this weekend (two different trips) were a 14 inch and 16 inch Fish. Both were released with no issues, the 14 was on live bait and the 16 (today's biggest) was on the fake worm. I am having no issues with gut or gill hooking due to adjusting line and keeping a better watch on bites. The fishing is above average compared to last year which was horrible in September. I did see people taking fish.. not sure what they expect to do with them, Smallmouth are horrible eating and the Wallkill is not a safe to eat fish from place. Someone today had 5 or 6 (various sized) Smallmouth on a stringer. Sad... 1 Quote
