    My family owned 60 acres in Charlevoix for almost 100 years. Great grandfather built the two story farm house and two barns with lumber from the property. There's a ton of smallmouth in the channel. The water is extremely high this year though, normally the water is 5-6 feet from the edge of the channel and now its 2 maybe 3.

    The salmon at 4:15 mark is a hatchery Jack Chinook (aka. juvenile Chinook). Chinook (Kings) have the black mouth and Coho have the white. The hatchery note is because it doesn't have an adipose fin. :-)

    I'm in southern Indiana. Been bass fishing Indiana for almost 30 years. In my opinion, a "nice" bass is around 5lbs. There are some public sweet spots in S. Indiana that hold some big 'uns. Up to 8 lbs. isn't uncommon. Bigger than that is pretty rare, but not out of the question. I'm sure there will be disagreements on this, but as I stated, it's my opinion.
