Sharpen Your Hooks - Another Monster Got Away on the Duck River!

- I took a quick upstream trip, a half day at best, from Leftwich and towards Carpenters Bridge on Columbia, Tennessee's Duck River. I paddled a couple of miles upstream, casting topwater in that direction, and saw some smaller spots hit my lure. But, then it happened. I hooked into a big smallmouth, who displayed his power with several acrobatic displays. And then, he spit the hook and crushed my dreams. Thankfully, I caught him completely on camera, and we can check him out here!

The fish looked to be close to around 18-20” for sure. Clearly well spawned out and in full summer mood. Go back in November-April and that fish will be thick! I have fished the duck for 8 years now. I have personally seen a couple 21s and one 22.5 come from that stretch. Keep it up man!
Thanks for watching, buddy.
Ya this heat has been brutal lately. At least you didn't get skunked 😎😃
Amen!
Fished at leatherwood bridge a few times this week, but haven't had any luck besides a lure sized largemouth. Flung some nightcrawlers right in front of 3 cats in the shallows, but they completely ignored me. Still enjoyed myself. Great video ✌️
Thanks, buddy!
Monster??? What a joke. Literally a two pound smallie maybe. Thanks for wasting ten minutes. 😂
It was a good fish (bigger than 2 lbs, and I’d say at least 3), but keep in mind that I fish in rivers, where fish don’t sit and get fat. They burn calories fighting current. They’re long and lean. My PB isn’t a Dale Hollow 9lb smallie, it’s 4lb 3oz Harpeth River smallie.
GoPros suck at both zoom and depth. Thats the only thing they suck at.
Where did you put in and take out? I just fished the duck on my kayak for the first time a few weeks ago
