idk about feb 2 i had work  but on feb 3rd  to day  i went to the three rivers in pittsburgh and found a 10 foot hump with 30 feet pools on each side and caught 6 smallmouth the biggest about 13 inches  my buddy caught 5 nothing big though

Man, I don't know where the smallmouth have gone.   :'(

We ended up having three guests, so it turned into a big party. The first drift was a shutout and never got any better. I caught a fair sized largemouth and a couple of big buffalo, but no smallmouth were caught. After three hours we motored up to Diamond Island so our guests could at least catch some fish. We anchored down behind the island and caught 150- 200 white bass, so the rest of the boys had a little fun.

Three more drifts to finish the day, a couple of drum and another buffalo...

Nope, not me. The largemouth was probably three or four pounds and the buffaloes I'd guess at seven and nine. The buffalo fight just like a smallmouth except the lack of jumping, but bottom line: it's just disappointing to me.
