    Juniata is blown out after getting 5-7” off rain the other night. Had the lower Susky a mess. Trucked a little further north to the old stomping grounds. Hit the area from the east shore as water levels are up 1.5-2’ above normal summer run. Hellgramite was the bait of choice for high sun...

    Been running up to the Juniata past couple outings since Debbie left the Susquehanna running too high for our summer wading trips. Killing the smallies. If you fish any river system you have to try YUM Hellgramites on a jig head. Anything from dinks to 4+ pounders. Like a fat kid on cake! Sunday...

    Buddy got a 21 1/2" smallie below local Hydro Plant this past Wednesday. First cast using a crayfish for bait. Not much weight for its length. Took a trip north of us and spent last evening. Couple dozen landed with 19" largest. Most all on topwater.

You find them, you are on them for the day! DOZENS upon DOZENS! Fished close to the thermocline. Better as lake flipped in...

    Shed hunting.

    Dad found this massive State Game Land shed Saturday 4/2. Have him frequent on camera in velvet, then he disappeared! Come last week he was back in the open woods of SGL dropping his rack! Measured 72 2/8". Booner for sure! Many days will be spent searching for the larger left side.

    Ice update

    My dad went to a county reservoir chasing crappie mid week. Caught a couple nice ones along with some perch, bass and bluegill. Went back this past weekend and the remaining ice mass was blown back over the once open shallows. No fishing at all.
