Smallmouth bass fishing in Harrisburg PA. August 8, 2023
My apologies for fat shaming these fish. I realize my ignorance and hope to do better in the future.

The “creatures” like the one you zoomed in on are very plentiful in Harrisburg. Good video.
😂 thank you!
Love how dark those Fish are around you there. Great Video man! New Sub from a fellow Smallmouth Junkie in Indiana.
Thanks for the sub! That’s awesome. Yeah they can get pretty dark in the Susqy. Huge variability in coloring for some reason
@@GillRaker79 sweet man! We do a lot of wading around here, mainly small clear Creeks & Rivers. Cheers to the mighty Smallmouth!
@TrueNorthOutdoorAdventures Yes, cheers! My favorite fish!
Nice video, can you please share the exact date that you where there fishing? The Susquehanna has been nothing but a big mud hole up North where I like to fish at for the month of September. Thank you and Tight Lines 😊
Thanks man. I was there august 8th. I went again late September and got my biggest ever. Still have to edit the footage for that one. Same techniques worked from this video
Where do u catch them in July? Do they head deep, mid river?
Nice video. What kinda boat u have? I have been doing bank fishing for a year now and want to get out on the water. Prob end up w a kayak tho
Thanks man. I’ve got a Lowe 16’ semi v hull. Yeah a kayak will be able to get you into the spots that are too shallow for a boat. It’ll be a game changer
Good fishn at city island! I’m like five minutes away from there. Caught my PB there las may. 20 1/4. Caught that on the kayak. Got a new 2023 G3 1448 with a 15 prop now. But I still take the Ebike down and top water the the steps in the evening sometimes.😂
Thanks! Dude that’s sick! That boat will do great there. Can’t wait til I get one over 20. Yeah I’ve got to try some more over by the stairs. Good luck man!
great video, what color crank bait were you using
I think it was called ghost craw
Nice video dude. Is your boat a jet boat or just a standard outboard?
Thanks! It's just a standard outboard. I definitely bang up the prop a bit in that area.
Should of put in below the damn n fished it. We have had multiple 100+ days and also caught striper multiple times in the spring there
That’s a lot of smallies! I’ve put out at steelton and Middleton a couple times and had one pretty good day there. I’m going to definitely fish down there more this year
Do you have spot lock?
Nope I wish! Every time I let off the foot pedal to land a fish, I drift a good 40 yards downriver 😂
Can you eat the fish?why is that you caught it and just letting it go,?
It’s something called, “Catch and Release.” It’s a big tradition among people who fish for the challenge and sport of it. Now and then I’ll keep other species besides bass (they don’t taste that good) to eat.
@@GillRaker79 awww thank you for the info.I live near the area and just move here in the US 5 months ago..
Can't keep bass in that section of the river, they're protected by law
