If you wish to try another Small Mouth "Factory," try the Juniata River, anywhere between Lewistown and its mouth, on the Susquehanna, at Duncannon. I was born and raised in Pennsylvania and fished everywhere, in that state, in my younger years. I had any number of folks refer me to the Juniata and tell me it was the best Small-mouth fishing in the country. The couple dozen or so times I drove down to fish and canoe, it sure lived up to that billing...40 or 50 very good sized fish in a day was not unheard of. However, I have not been there for a good number of years, since I now live in Florida, but, after watching this video and remembering the Juniata, I might just plan a trip, in the near future before it is time to check out and go fish that paradise Trout Stream or Bass River in the sky.

[@pamtnman1515]

Twenty years ago the Susquehanna was unbelievable. We averaged 150 smallmouth per day, with additional fallfish, yelloweye, walleye, muskellunge, and catfish. It is a shadow of its former self now. Glad you like it

[@flyslinger2]

My sons and I put in just as you started your day. Great Father’s Day weekend.

[@kristinefischer2289]

Ah too cool! What a great place to spend Fathers Day! Happy Happy fathers day to you!!

[@JakeHarshman]

I appreciated your company Queen! You and G are welcome back anytime. Stop by on your way home, Y'all have a free spot to stay!

[@catchofthedave8681]

You are not wrong. Last year when I went to susquehanna for the first time, it very quickly became my all time favorite fishery. The first day I caught my first muskie. Then the next day i caught like a 10lb carp that ATE a squarebill, then the two tourney days I caught my personal best smallmouth twice. It was amazing, you can see everything, it's beautiful. Now I'm trying to plan a trip where I take my brother or some friends and family who don't fish to show them how special a fishery it truly is. I'm a lot like you in that the TN river lakes are my fav lakes (despite the DQ at chick a year ago this month) and the susquehanna is my favorite river and favorite overall fishery. Keep the content coming, you are on a roll! ----Dave

[@timjohns191]

Reminds me of almost growing up in VA, fishing the Shenandoah and upper Potomac, wading for hours, enjoying every minute, caught as many as 180 fish in a full day, but always beautiful clean water and angry smallmouth. Love it

[@kristinefischer2289]

That is awesome!

[@timjohns191]

@@kristinefischer2289 You're awesome young lady, love your videos and frankly I squeal when I have a big bite, feel your excitement and joy. Have a great week and thanks for the feedback, sets you apart from so many others.😇

[@ralstonrobertson6644]

Kristine, I grew up next to the Susquehanna in Pennsylvania and I loved fishing this river. I had no boat but walked out into the river and walked the bottom. I still have fond memories of a smallmouth strike and how they would walk the top of the water on their tails. One day, I tied into a pike that was so heavy at first that my friend laughed at me saying I was hung on a tree limb of the bottom. The laugh turned around when I landed that monster. Try the Hellgrammite some time, those bass eat them up. Love your show and your casting ability. Your skip casts are a beauty to behold!

[@nakibackus1240]

I live on the Susquehanna … and while I haven’t fished to many other rivers for smallmouth , imo it don’t get any better than this …😊 tight lines

[@pmcmva]

New to the channel. I've driven past this river on RT15 between Eastern VA and WNY (for Canandaigua, Hemlock, Cayuga, Keuka, and Genesee river smallies) Have always been struck by its beauty and variety. Finally last year I stopped and just waded a little bit. This was a great vid to get me fired up for a possible early fall stop. New sub.

[@HoosierCarnivore]

Next time, take some "stupid tubes". Smallies love those things! Great video!! It doesn't get much better than river smallie fishing in the summer time.

[@kristinefischer2289]

Thanks for the tip!

[@robertregis2470]

Great video I live right along the Susquehanna great for all around fishing nice trout tributaries that feed into it as well. Fiber dam is a great place along there as well

Good to see you out doing some fun fishing on one of your favorite rivers. Take care and be safe!

[@kristinefischer2289]

Thanks, will do!!! Hope you had a great weekend Christine!

[@SGT_Reid]

I am putting that place on my bucket list of places to fish. I love how wide it is and how you can see the hills in the background. And awesome job!

[@kristinefischer2289]

You should! It is literally one of my all time favorite places to fish, late july and august the top water bite is unreal!

[@keviningram6416]

As a resident of PA, and smallie enthusiast, this is HANDS down the best river to fish for smallmouth on the East Coast and is in the top 5 smallmouth rivers in the US. Plenty of forage, as Kristine showed, the river bottom is loaded with crawfish which supports the quality of the fishery. Great video and glad you had a great time fishing our gem here in PA.🎣

[@academicmailbox7798]

The Cayuga were one of the original Iroquois nations confederation. Some centuries ago. Some of those nations had been flint stone tool workers. Some of them were highlanders. Others such as the Cayuga nation of the Iroquois speaking people. Were from the lowland and wetland areas. Eventually it became six nations. And the sixth nation were based around the upper reaches of this Susquehanna river system. Which flows out to (correction, Baltimore). Mixing up with Delaware river system. Philadelphia was an important colonial port. One of the first of them. There were two smaller nations that were along the Hudson river system. Additional to the five nations that were all based. Along the shoreline of Lake Ontario. And the five nations extents stretched deep into the interior. Of what is a modern day forested region. Of the northern parts of Pennsylvania State. It is only in these river journey images, that I get some idea. Of how expansive and wide this environment is.

[@academicmailbox7798]

The Delaware river upper reaches and tributaries of the Catskill limestone mountain areas. In New York State. Is the river system in which fly fishing. In the later nineteenth century. Had become most established. With some other parts of Pennsylvania, Maine, and elsewhere. Historians of fly fishing in U.S. suggest that Philadelphia had stores that sold fly fishing tackle. Even in the late eighteenth century. As far back as that.

[@stevewalter517]

I'm going to be fishing there the whole week of the 4th July. Staying at farryboat campground can't wait.Susquehanna small mouth are a blast. Love river fishing.

I grew up near the Susquehanna river, in early spring we always fished around Shelly island snd below the dam for Smallmouth and walleye, just about every cast, fish on ! Fish there and around Perdix area north of I-81 bridge. Hours of fun ! Been using my new Sunrise Camo Outback that I picked up from the guys at Delaware Paddlesports. Awesome crew there. I have Rebel Crayfish with the paint wore off I caught so many smallmouth on.

Lordy, that crawfish reminded me of the afternoons in the creeks of the Ozarks catching crawfish to fish with the next morning. You should have put on a crawfish and floated down the river. Floggers? More flogging too ya! Just the early invention of forward facing sonar as far as I’m concerned 👍👍

Fished that area for over 50yrs. Use to be even better fishing yrs ago. Try the Zmann Pro craw on the Ned. Less fish but bigger fish. Square bill and jerk baits also a option.

If the fish are still on beds they work great and the water clarity is good. I think you may have missed the prime time bed fishing time. Good luck and have fun BE SAFE.

Can you explain how you use a slobber knocker I noticed that was your favorite bait so I purchased a Crawfish red to see your favorite change my luck 🍀 I’ve learned so much from watching your videos. Thank you so much.

HAHA, I'm a Daiwa guy, love Daiwa sv baitcasters more than anything else. But one of my spinning rods is an abu. The only Abu I have is a revo rocket spinning reel, and yes, I do love it. It's the previous generation, I got it in a deal I did when I sold some of my old stuff and a guy traded me a rocket on a villian 2.0 rod......it's an amazing little setup, and one of my favorites for smallie fishing. -Dave

Use an underwater fishing cam instead of the flogger on a kayak, then you have better control on depth and takes up less room.

I'll be posting what footage I get from it on my channel once I can. Excited to try it out, but he said same thing it fishes slower this time of year. Also going to Penns Creek to chase some trout with the flyrod while there. Have fun in Cayuga, hammering biggies there right now. I just got back from my yearly Erie trip on the kayaks couple weeks ago, ton of footage to go through yet and gonna start posting some videos from it as well.

OK this is a dumb question but when you fish a river without a Torqueedo/any motor, do you just pedal back upstream at the end of the day? or do you have to have someone pick you up at a takeout & drive you back to your launch point/parking?
