Smallies are getting Fat

Prepped the house for the painters this morning then took the dog,wife,daughter (DAF,WAF,KAF) up for a swim the dog and I took off downstream and the smallies were on the prowl. Had about 25 hook ups in about an hour and a half landed 15 all quality fish cept for 2 dinks. Went up to relax but the fishings was just too good. after awhile all the kayaks were coming over and said there were 2 girls upstream looking for me . Guess I didn't get as much WAF as I thought.

Nice bronzebacks!  What did you get them on today?  Where?  Quality action for sure.

Nice job!  I've got a small creek nearby that's loaded with feisty smallies...there's nothing like 'em!

Love the dog angling reports!!     There's kayakfishing, then there's canangling (angling with a canine aboard a human powered vessel)   we should form a league.

and nice smallies to boot

Nice work on the smallies Mike.  I will be getting on the water up there paddling up from the PG&E hole in a few weeks when i get back from my roadtrip.  I'll post when heading out, I'd like to hook up with you if you are able.....

They travel in trios 

Nice bit of fishin!  How much of the year are the smallies hitting well out that way?

As a general guideline I go with Easter to Turkey Day

Those Smallies ARE fattin up PHAT! You sure got it SWEET up there on the river Mike!  and your paddling buddy looks game for the hunt EVERYTIME!!
those hit-per-hour numbers are unbelievable....and I just keep driving past there on my way to other places...one day it's gonna have to be my destination.

You always got a place to stay and kick back Adam, I got a kayak in the water 24/7

NCKA LOVE!!  what a DEAL!  thanks Mike!

Plus, it's hella fun just to cruise down the river and see "the sites"!

Constant parade going by.

After Elk I'm thinking of a Lake Sonoma in the am for LMB then have a nice late lunch at my place then hit the river for smallies untill dark.
