Literally was like a jack in the box 😂 I may have been startled. The glide bait wasn't even moving when this smallmouth crushed it. 🎣

Full river trip is live on YouTube.

The river kept twisting through the trees, and every stretch looked like it could hold a good one. Some days you find a spot. Other days you find a river you don't want to leave.

New video Thursday at 6 PM. 🎣

Crazy how this 5.5" glide can trigger a bite when nothing else will.

Muddy water and storms all week had me scrambling trying to figure out where to fish. Sunday was tough, but honestly it turned into one of those perfect chill days anyway — rock hunting, soaking up the sun, and getting everything ready for the Florida Keys trip. Even got a final shakedown run in with the electric kayaks.

Yesterday I hauled the ultralight back out and hit a low head dam stretch I haven’t fished in over a year. Little more controlled conditions with all the rain lately. Found a smallmouth pattern pretty quick, lost a really big one early… then about an hour later this 18” smallie ate.

Third confirmed Fish Ohio smallmouth of the year. 👌🏻

These moments on the river are gone almost as fast as they show up.

Thats what makes them special

Ever since I started chasing smallmouth, I wanted to catch a true giant river smallie. What makes it even more special is that my local river — the same river I first started floating ( Little Miami ) — ended up producing my biggest fish to date.

Finally got my PB 20.75" replicated by .fish.taxidermy , and they absolutely knocked it out of the park on this one.
