He's running 130 miles one direction....They had another fog delay this morning and it was longer than day 1, Mike said its a 2 hr drive to his spots one way he didn't feel like he would have enough fishing time. Now he is in 8th place lets hope he has a back up plan or he may really fall.
My bb reels also have the flipping switch, if u get up to Springfield go to BPS and check out their bb rods designed by Parsons and Kavajecz , those are decent rods..
Some friends have been catching some around Beavertown off the bank using chubs....I know of two 9lbers caught .....there was some males caught in the last couple days.
I've did very little jerk bait fishing , when u first jerk the bait down to u give it 5 or 6 aggressive jerks to get the bait down then start the slow process of fishing it back to boat?
When fishing the PWT as an amateur some of the pros would just wear a T-shirt while fishing but just before we headed to weigh in they would put their jersey on.
I caught LOTS of 8-10" smallmouth this year while trolling for walleyes.....I was fishing from Diamond City to Music Creeks.....I sure hope the walleyes make a come back.
