I went out last weekend for first time to local river. I could not resist stopping by for few casts river is exactly five minutes from my business. Caught some more nice river smallmouth. I love fishing river fish are so strong they are destroying my spinner baits. I can't wait for getting in kayak to really fish these waters.

Really nice colors on those smallies. Is that the Merrimack?

Very nice!

Yes it is Merrimac been fishing it for over 35 years. I have fished from Concord NH all the way to the mouth of river in Newburyport. I love exploring new places in river out today just walking the banks at low tide lowing for structure to fish. Water temp has dropped quite a bit with cold weather looks like fish have retreated into the deep holes.

Congrat's!
