TechniqueSoft Body Swimbaits (Small/Medium)SeasonSpring (Spawn)StructureRip RapFished the rocks in front of Peach Bottom casting to the shore. Smallmouth hit spinnerbaits and Keitch swimbaits on 1/4 oz round head jig heads right after hitting the water. Floated past the rock wall and continued downstream. Caught 2 nice sized catfish on the Neko rig with the Crush City Hedgehog. Remaining bass came on fishing a black Zoom Trick Worm on a 1/8 jig head slowly near the shore.

TechniqueShallow Diving Crankbaits (0-6')SeasonSummerStructurePilingsThe river was running 3.7 on the gauge. I started out with a t rigged craw fishing grass. I did not have success. I then floated down river fan casting. When that did not work trying to cover water I started focusing on bridge piling. Cranking around them worked very well. I ended up having a great day.

TechniqueHard Topwater (Prop)SeasonSummerStructureSubmerged VegetationThe river recently went from 3.8 up to 4.5. I tried the shallow rock bite at first. That did not pan out so I switched to the newly submerged grass islands. The bite was on fire. Multiple blow ups and fish caught. I was using a medium retrieve with faster pumps. The only down side is the fish were small.
