Trip Summary

As the summer winds down the Susquehanna Smallmouth become much more aggressive. The small finesse baits that are the normal for the summer will be replaced by much bigger more aggressive baits such as Jerk Baits, Crankbaits and Spinnerbaits. This is my favorite time of the year the fall foliage is beautiful the bugs have gone away and the Smallmouth and Walleye get very hungry plus the bonus Musky become more common. So if you want to experience a World Class Smallmouth Fishery give me a call and we will set something up. I have several helpers on staff so we can make it happen.

Hello all, I do sincerely hope all my fishing friends and safe and tolerating the shelter in place order. I have some good news to report we are open for charters but will have to maintain social distancing guidelines as put forth by the CDC. Also one other change all charters from May 1st moving forward will will only be allowed to take two fishermen no matter how small they are. These rules are put out by the CDC and will be enforced by PFBC. We will also need to wear a Sun Buff or a face mask at all times, I know most of you wear a Buff so this is no big deal to you. As far as fishing, the Smallmouth are in Pre Spawn and are very hungry and willing to chase most baits. Last week I personally caught over ten citation fish. So if your looking to get out and enjoy some fresh air set something up the weather is looking better and the fishing is good.
