Nice! :clapsmile :clapsmile :clapsmile

Wow! Shows how much I know. I didn't realize there were smallmouth in Arizona!

 

[Bergger]

That's a nice smallmouth any place!

 

[The BN Guy]

Very nice. :clapsmile :clapsmile

That's a monster for sure. I fished for a year in the Susquehanna River which is know for SMB and never caught one like that, nice work.

 

[Westy]

Good catch. They are in that river.

Hope you put him back too!

Nice! I wish there was a place like that near San Diego.

I thought the rule of fishing was to never shoot a photo of your catch, so it can be bigger when you re-tell the story.

Nice fish, Seth! Is that the Black?

Nice fish, Seth! Is that the Black?

Yup. Probably my favorite place in AZ. I have fished it from Black River Crossing all the way up to Wildcat Point, and many of it's tributaries too.

 

[Westy]

Best place in AZ, no question in my mind.

I hope it stays quiet for years to come...its nice going to a place and not seeing trash, or anybody else for days.

Seth,

That is a REALLY nice bass!

I love to fish for smallmouth bass in rivers...

Nice smallies guys. Cheesman Reservoir re-opened about a week ago after being shut down for about 5 years due to the Hayman Fire. I checked it out the other day for about an hour and got into this one:

Hadn't fished for smallies since I lived in Missouri. Great fight.
