- Getting to go up to Pennsylvania to fish the famous Susquehanna River in a national kayak tournament was such an amazing experience. I had heard of this river for a long time and how it is one of the best smallmouth fishing rivers in the world. When i got the opportunity to come up and see it for myself, plus fish a competitive tournament, I jumped at the chance and came to see it for myself.

Really love the fact you get out here andfish tournaments, with no livescope.just a man , his yak, and his rods..💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
That is my hometown River sir..... Monster smallmouth all over the place. I was really surprised to see the headline on your video say Susquehanna. I live in Western Kentucky now and lived just south of Harrisburg up until ten years ago I watch you all the time. Can't wait to keep watching this video
You don't have to find the fish there, they will find you
They love Kelly's Worms
I fish the susquehanna in maryland(conowingo dam).I catch stripped bass mostly there..
Jon, you look really tired! I'll be praying for rest and stamina. Be well brother!
John when this video started I saw all those campers and I thought, he has trucks, kayaks, rods and rills, so now his started accumulating campers this man has it all. Then I remembered those nights you slept in your truck. Maybe next year, and most of all that you are blessed for the things that you do, thank you sir from the bottom of my heart
Broken spinnerbait was blessing from the Lord. Awesome!
Welcome to the best Smallmouth fishery in the nation. I know exactly where you're at on the river. When the sun came out I was shouting. You found the channel. Some of my biggest smallies came from there. Aren't they gorgeous.
yes it was amazing
NOW you're beginning to understand the power and pure adrenalin of big smallmouth. I became a smallmouth junkie forty years ago. Ive caught all kinds of fish but NOTHING is like big smallmouth in current!!!
Man beautiful fish. Can't believe how shallow they were. Great video. Throw that bull shad when you need to upgrade. That thing is tailor made for those types of rivers..
Dude! I live in Lancaster PA and I fish the Susquehanna all the time. If you are still up here try fishing mill creek. I have caught some beautiful smallmouth in there. I love that you are fishing up here
Give Slackwater or the bridge on RT 324 (up and down stream also) on the Conestoga a try sometime
Dude! Win or lose, that's the best Smallmouth fishing I've seen you film in all the years I'v been watching you. Kept expecting you to try either the Nikko or The Yum hellgramite.
Me, too. I kept thinking John was going to dig out the biggest hellgramite he had with him and we’d have been off to the races with those 20+ inchers!
definitely insane smallmouth fishing
Such a wide river, yet seems so shallow? What an exciting experience! Thick fish!
Still had a solid day regardless! Hang in there brother. Those Susky smallmouth are amazing! Caught myself several 20+ on that river this year. You’ll get yours!
After losing a big bass on a broken spinner bait I started using a snell knot on the arm that goes to the hook. Better chance of the knot holding on a break.
I can’t imagine culling 16” smallies. Great day!
10 footballs for the win, Alex.
The weather didn’t cooperate but the fish were biting so your day went pretty good! Good luck John!
Wow, the Susquehanna River is such a wonderful place to fish, especially to hold a tournament in. The average size of those smallies just blows my mind and just adds to my conclusion that the Susquehanna River is just a wonderful river all the way around, no matter how you look at it, as far as fishing tournaments go. That river cuts through the mountains just a winding through and I thought it appeared to have a lot of hilly peeks just a few feet under the water's surface, and a ton of rocks, ledges and underlining cliffs, the kind of ingredients that make the perfect habitat for the smallies to hangout and swim around and ambush prey. ThankQ Jon for taking us along with you bubba. I really enjoyed it my brother. ❤😊
You are good with words! I am a seasoned smallmouth angler and that is a perfect description of a good smallmouth river.
Incredible video Jon!!!! Thanks for all that you do to make these awesome videos!!
This place is incredible, John, so many small mouths, a great first day! That was a miracle that spinnerbait didn't come off🙏, you have to be really coranaded to keep that kayak in place, cast your rod, keep the kayak in place, catch the fish get the net, keep the kayak in place, man that's work, it's shame they don't go by weight you would be in the top 10, can't wait for the next video!👍🎣
Great day of fishing,🐟🎣🐟🎣
Love your new intro falling into the water 😂
Wow how cool would it be to live close that world class smallmouth river?? What an incredible river!
What an awesome day on the water!
Duuuuuuude!!!!!!!! Yes sir!!!!! Watching you fish tournaments is riveting man. You’re such a down to earth dude and land some gnarly fish.
I'm glad you see you made it to PA to fish the Susquehanna. What an awesome fishery. I really enjoy your watching videos. Great job on day 1.
Don't worry too much about the cold. On Lake Cumberland I caught my biggest fish when the temp was hovering near freezing. I constantly had to clear the tip of ice so I cast and retrieve.
Keep chucking and winding!!! Thanks for sharing and have a Blessed Day!!!
Glad you found a spot to fish 👍🏼
Awesome John, just awesome.
Dude you gotta beat them fellas to the spot! An hour less of sleep vs a check?!?!?
Next time you make it to the mighty sussqy, you should try a 3/8 oz. Black roostrtail, and green/chartreuse tubes inch and a half! You should be catching a smally on every cast...
what an awesome video, the smallmouth fishing is fantastic. I'm gonna have to put that place on my bucket List bubble gum young dinnger.God bless
solid fish but side scan will help you find bait and concentrations of hawgs which is what you need in these tourneys - a fish painter would probably be a writeoff - could drop you down a bracket #tools #guessing every lure will work at this place - i think the difference is staying in the hot pockets - you will be able to talk to fellow kayakers and see what patterns are and where people are fishing - you are in top 25% which is not bad - you may have a big second day...I can't imagine what 21/22 inch fish looks like judging by what you have caught already at this place - footballs! try the hellgrammite or craws
I love watching you in tournaments!
I keep reliving you flipping over 😵💫
What great quality entertainment, despite the weather and tourney pressure. This channel never disappoints!
AND it's on one of my favorite fisheries to watch! I've never been there, but always love seeing Jeff Little and his friends out there.
A half hour south of my original stomping grounds. Love that area.
I see you made it up to my neck of the woods. There is nothing like a Susquehanna Smallie. Great job John!
Awesome, John!! It took you coming from TN for me to be able to see where good fishing is in my home state! Thanks! :-)
yes it did
Great video John. I grew up fishing that river. Avocado green tube jig use to wreck them back then. Keep rippin lips.
Awesome job John. Those are some healthy small mouth. I hope you win it or be in the top sir. God bless you and your whole family and friends..🙏❤🙏❤🙏
Nice fish! I’m glad you made the trip to Pennsylvania. Great videos keep them coming!
Buddy you had plenty of willing smallies. Now let's find you those upgrades. Solid start for never having been there. Blessings John
I always have a breaking issue with war eagles. I kill em on walmart spinner baits repainted and with the stock skirt switched to a silicone skirt. I bought a few in a pinch and they flat out produce tweaked a little bit
Gotta appreciate those fish. That’s quality right there. Maybe take the tourny out of the picture for a few just to be thankful for a nice haul. Can’t believe you didn’t lose that one on the broken spinner bait haha
#49👍🏻🛶🎣👀
Today's intro showing you getting dumped during a trip a short while back, was hilarious to me. It relates a great personality that does not shy away from sharing self-deprecating actions.
If you cannot laugh at yourself, who can you laugh at.
Kudos on the nice fish to boot. ✌🏼
Great watch, love the new intro 🌊
Great video brother! The Susquehanna is without question the best smallmouth river in our state. Those 14/15" fight like a tank and are built super thick!
No doubt!
Great trip if nothing else .they stay smaler up inmy area its a lot colder water but there's still a lot
Great video! Those were some amazing catches. I don't have a kayak, but I love wading out to islands in big rivers and hunting down smallies. I've been watching for years. I'm still amazed at the ease with which you flick around your baitcaster. I still remember when you'd always backlash on them. (I'm still in the can't take it out without backlashing camp--I need to practice more).
getting good with a bait caster has really helped my power fishing
It's definitely football season!!
Perfect video. Has everything.
Bleeding Bronz - smallies!!❤🇺🇸
This is awesome.
They really do make a titanium wire spinner bait and I’ve never wore one out…just resharpened hooks occasionally!
lots of fun to watch
youre gonna kill it in the second day, numba 1! thanks for all that you do. amazing upload as usual :)
Awesome adventure John thanks for taking us on it😎
Well, you finally talked me into it, went today to pick up my Shoellie Kayak! LOL
hey nice, hope you have fun in it
Enjoyed! Beautiful fish
Loved that intro!
good luck !
Another awesome video well done
Niiice. Beautiful smallies. Love it. I've got to get out of GA.... I love me some shoalies,though. Go Dawgs.
Absolutely love the tournament videos.
What an amazing place.
Every fish you caught had me on the edge of my chair, I was just hoping to see a 22" monster....God Bless and GO KATS!!!!!!!!!!
great vid got to love them
Wait....are you HERE!? This is my home, feel free to hit me up if you want to try down and dirty historical fishing.
great video john
Very enjoyable video and I like your upbeat attitude!!
Man those were healthy fish great video
Great be video John
Love the new intro lol
I like watching the tournament features you do, the fact that you go so far to enter them is great, when you catch a good one, i can tell by the splashes they make, and then to see them and you telling the length is really help for, get doing these typed of videos, there are great fun to watch, thanks for doing so/
LOL , luv the intro !
Great content.
Great smallmouths
Great day of fishing John, those fishy look awesome. Hope the next video shows you placing.
Love the new self deprecating intro.
You can say God blessed you on that catch great video beautiful place some great fish
@@5rods5reels29 God loves you and I hope one day you will open your heart and let him in and find peace only he can bring
That's a great day of fishing when 15-16" fish won't help you out. Those War Eagle spinner baits are kind of expensive to keep breaking like that. Not a great plug for the brand. Love your content!
most people that really use spinnerbaits alot know that after bending them back and forth there is a good chance of breaking
Welcome to PA, John! I know you like creek fishing so when you have the chance to return back to PA try the tributaries that flow into this wonderful river you will not be disappointed
Plus far north susky is an awesome fishery as well. One trip out last year my wife along with a friend and I caught 289 smallies in 7 hours on a Sunday!
Safe travels back to TN
I know you don’t want a motor but it would be handy on the Susquehanna
yes it would
Hit the solitary boulders where the waves or current crashes against. Throw all the way to the rock as in, hit the rock.
i didnt get a single bite off of boulders like that, everything off of underwater ledges
I live in camp hill right next to the sesquahanna creek
hammerin em
In my neck of the woods! Enjoy!
Nice smallmouth 👍
Dude you need to try Sick Custom Spinner Baits, out of PA proven producers and durable 🎣
I saw Jeff Little's kayak and pickup behind you at the end of the video
That's gotta be some healthy, small mouth in that water. Everyone's just thick and tall.
Not a bad 1st day.
Welcome to PA.
Like 1k love your vids man keep them comin
Damn those fish r aggressive
Great videos. I always make a note of the different lures you use. You turned me on the Nikko hellgrammite. Do you ever use tubes?
not much, i need to try some
What size color spinnerbait and trailer do you use? What brands? Hope the rest of the tournament went well for you. Thanks for all your videos. Love your channel and go Vols!
this was war eagle 3/8 oz usually a 3 inch swimbait on it
Where on the Susquehanna river were you fishing.????? I lived in Pa for most of my life ,have fished the dusky in an around the Wilkes Barre ,Pittston are ,always liked the river. I now live in Elizabethton tn and fish the nolichucky south holston and north toe in north carolina
