    Love your videos! And, really appreciate the subtitles showing the fish length and lures being used. I don't kayak fish, but have a small boat. However, I learn a great deal by watching your videos, which is why I watch fishing videos. Thanks for the insight and play-by-play of how you are fishing!

    I fish the suskie quite a bit...this girl figured that river out better than most people and she did it damn quick.
    She NAILED some common mistake that people make on that river. Everyone goes to the ledges, etc. Shes absolutely right about bigger solitary fish getting away and c ruising the shallows. They can be impossible to catch if the water ia super low , but if you hit it right....omg. Heaven.

    I grew up fishing this river and the smallmouth were so fun. I loved their aerial action. Although everyone talks about small mouth, one afternoon with a buddy, after landing a stringer of small mouth, I tied into something else. I was unable to move the contact for so long that my buddy was laughing that I had snagged on the bottom. After 15 minutes or so I began to notice the line was moving slowing across the current and I was making some headway 😅. I got within 8 feet of me and rolled and ran back to open water! My heart raced as I figured no one would believe my “fisherman’s story” if I lost it. I finally landed it and it was a very large walleye pike. Needless to say, my buddy’s laughing stopped. You are a terrific angler. 😊

You move around in that yak like you were sitting on a couch. Just shows how comfortable you are there. Nice work figuring that out. Results tell the tale.

    "They're jumpin everywhere" The bass were either after emerging insects or adults on the surface. We have many fantastic hatches on the Susquehanna. Right now on the North Branch the White Flies are out and it's a blizzard of insects in the evening. A big smallie on a fly rod is an experience, especially caught on a dry fly.

    Only the Upper Potomac River can compare to the Susquehanna River, I caught my biggest Smallie while fishing above high island in a grass & gravel bar on a G Finnish Ghost Big O, but if I were going for bites? 1/4 oz brown/tan/green jig & a chartreuse or brown 101 uncle josh craw pork rind kicks ass! With a double silver Colorado blades and a black shirt! Throwing everything up current working it down into the fish not from behind! The Harrisburg part of the River is very productive! But need to keep an eye for rocks! But that's a great river fishery! The Blue Room Bar in town is great place for a beer & chow!
