Smallieguy87 Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Went out and fished a stretch of the mineral fork on saturday. Water temps were hovering around 56°-57°. Fished for about an hour or so and caught six smallies and one largemouth. All were caught on a Texas rigged tube bait. Here's a picture of the big fish of the day. Nothing to crazy but a super chunky 15'. Hog Wally, dan hufferd, Seth and 10 others 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took a buddy of mine who doesn't really fish much so I'm trying to get him into it. He managed a few goggle eye. It's tough to keep him interested lol Eric82, bkbying89, Mitch f and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was excited about having a fish on until he saw it was a goggle eye lol not sure why? I don't mind catching em at all. He's set on bass but just doesn't always have the patience when the bite is slow or just hard in some way. I told him that comes with time and to just keep at it.

Haven't got to look at the section near Kingston access. Not much has changed around F bridge. Maybe a little more shallow in the section just up stream of the bridge. I have access near rivermont I'll be checking that out in the next couple weeks and will let you know. DownStream and bkbying89 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kudos Yeah mineral fork can surprise you with some quality smallmouth. Obviously the average fish size won't be as big as fish from the Mac or Big but still some great fishing to be had. bkbying89 and DownStream 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
