Great day on the water! Dave was a great fishing guide. He knew where the โsmalliesโ were hitting, and we knocked down 82 of these great fighting fish. And that doesnโt even count the dozens that spit the hook. Dave is just an all-around nice guy. Easy to get along with and a good teacher of technique. Will definitely be booking with him again.
My dad and I had a great day on the water with Captain Bruchey. I am new to fishing and learned a lot about the river and different techniques. We ended up catching a lot of fish with all the spots we visited and had an amazing day. He was a great guide who knew his way around the river. Five stars and would recommend this trip.
David is dialed in and amazingly personable. Immediately on fish and didnโt stop till we stopped.ย Havenโt met anyone that knows the Susquehanna better.
Lost track of number of fish caught within first hour.ย Any trip like that is a โkeeper.โย (As a kid had deep sea trips where we caught nothing).ย Capt. Dave shows you why Susquehanna is World Class Smallmouth fishing.ย We fished same waters that hosted Hobie Kayak Fishing Pro Tour this summer.ย And, as productively as if you watched Jeff Littleโs You Tube channel โThe Little Stuffโ โ and had โgotten the pattern down for the bite,โ as he calls it.ย Capt. David has a huge arsenal of tackle.ย But you really only need one or two luresโthe ones theyโre biting on that day.ย And just a few places (where theyโre feeding) on the day youโre out and in those water and weather conditions.ย Affirmed what I learned (that should/would work now) from โthe Little stuff.โย Coincidence?ย Noโexperience.ย ย But what Jeff recommended โnowโ (Fall Pattern vid) where he illustrated the learning process, David knew.ย Meaning he obviously โknewโ (or thought he knew) the pattern that would work.ย Handed me a rod with a tied on lure.ย I fished it (using dead stick technique I learned from โthe little stuff.โ).ย Bam, Bam,bam.ย More fish in first hour (lost count) than I got in any trip all summer.ย Which โprovedโ validity of what was being taught in Little Stuff, i.e Figure out these moody fishesโ patterns. Pro Tip: Or someone who knows it and can get you there. ย ย Another Pro Tip: Now (beginning of October til itโs too cold) โ is Susquehanna Smallie feeding frenzy of fattening up for winter. (
