Bluegill - Big Bluegill
These aren't gills, but great smallmouth
I caught 3 nice smallmouths yesterday on the Juniata River in PA. I landed 2 that topped 18 inches and another that was 17." I caught several more in the 10 to 15-inch range. I was using a fly rod throwing a foam popper called an Ole' Mr. Wiggley and some woolly buggers. Fun day, but a hot day. I wet waded, but it still seemed pretty hot.

Nice report Bruce….I’ve only caught a few smallmouth in my lifetime….lived in Tennessee a few years back in the early 90s….fun fish to catch….glad you got out and enjoyed the fly rod….it must be hot everywhere right now….I’m going to fish early tomorrow because we are forecasted to have heat index over 110 all week….
