-nick- Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 Not sure if this should be here or the smallie section but if it's wrong my mistake. Anyways, went up to app this weekend to stay with a friend and watch the game. We got out today on a little river and i was throwing an x-rap and got my first smallmouth on. I had been craving to catch a smallmouth for forever so it was pretty exciting. Quote
daviscw Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 Congratulations! Were you on the New or the Watauga? I was at the game too, but the keg called me back home at halftime. Quote
-nick- Posted October 25, 2009 Author Posted October 25, 2009 I couldn't tell you what river but yeah we left at half time as well the first half lasted forever. Quote
nUgZ Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 Nice smallie man! We've got a cabin on the New River and I love catching the bass up there. Quote
chubaka Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Nice smallie, i heard they fight harder then a LMB. Quote
-nick- Posted October 26, 2009 Author Posted October 26, 2009 Nice smallie, i heard they fight harder then a LMB. Yeah i've always heard that as well, and i could feel him hit and miss then come back and hit it and he hit it hard and then when i was reeling it in i was saying there is no way this is a SM but i got it in and it was. I think it's because the way he was hooked was on his mouth and like under his jaw he really couldn't fight good. Either way it was a gorgeous fish and i was glad i finally got to see one in person!
