It was a four-hour trip starting at noon, and the bite was finicky. Water temperature had climbed a few degrees which often isn't a good thing this time of year. Lots of little ones, and a few 14 to 16 inchers.

Fishing Update July 26 Past clients Jonathan and Tiffany joined me for a morning outing today. We spent a couple hours on Kahle and boated a bunch of 12 inchers. Then we dropped down to the Allegheny for a shot at some river smallies. Managed a half dozen up to 18 inches the last two hours. The river's still running high but clarity is acceptable.
