Don B Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 Caught my PB river smallmouth so far on 3/24/09. Fish measured 21.25" and weighed 5 lbs., 9 ounces. Water temp. was 45 degrees. Fooled this beast with a red/yellow jig in a saddle hole about 300 yards down from a dam. Quote
SMfisher Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 way to go Don that is a real nice fish, did it put up a big fight or was it to cold? Quote
Don B Posted March 25, 2009 Author Posted March 25, 2009 did it put up a big fight or was it to cold? Had it to the boat 3 times before I could net it. Wasn't using heavy gear, so I couldn't muscle it in. There wasn't any jumpin', but it pulled the drag at will each time I had it near the boat. Also: Forgot to mention that I released the fish unharmed to be caught again another day! Quote

Super User iceintheveins Posted March 25, 2009 Super User Posted March 25, 2009 Beautiful smallie. My personal best is a little over 5 pounds and came from Colorado's Yampa River. Was this pig from the Allegheny? Quote

CWeb Canada Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Great fish and photo. What do you mean by, "saddle hole?" I'm thinking, if this kind of structure produces that type of figh I should familiarize myself with what a saddle hole is and look for it when I'm out next. CWeb Quote
Fat-G Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Is it me, or are smallies umm......... .....the best fish EVER ;D Nice fish. Quote
