shaw24 Posted April 29, 2009 Posted April 29, 2009 Well my favorite creek has finally come down enough to fish in. I really wasn't expecting much but got a nice suprise! I caught about 4 dinks in about mid thigh water that was moving pretty quick. Then I caught a decent 1.5 lber that had a belly full of something (first pic) then I got the biggest smallie I have ever caught. He hit like a ton of bricks and for the first couple minutes of the fight never surfaced or did any acrobatics, which I thought was strange. So as I'm reeling him in and he's ripping line out I thought to myself "if this is a d**n carp I'm gonna be ticked!". Finally he surfaced and I breathed a sigh of relief. It was a good 6 or 7 minute fight but seemed forever - it was awesome!!! Of course I didnt bring the scale along but guessing him somewhere around 3 lbs and close to 18-20". I was on a high for the whole night! Quote
GHow Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 Hi Shaw24, Nice to you also enjoy flyfishing for smallmouth. I was poking around on the web, found this site and just registered. Great that there's a forum just for smallmouth Quote
