Fished out of Riverpark this afternoon. Pete Jr. joined me after he got off work. I caught my personal best smallie, a 21 in., 5 lbs., 10 oz. beauty on a 1 oz. spinner bait Pete Jr. rigged for me. Beautiful fish, released of course. I also caught a 17 in. smallie, a 15.5 in. LM and a yellow bass. Pete Jr. only caught a small spot. Well, he put it on me on Sunday and today was my day. The 17 in. smallie was also caught on a spinner bait. The LM on a jig/pig and the YB on a tube bait. Not a whole lot of action, a lot of casting a heavy spinner bait, a lot of dead time, but well worth it for the PB smallie. No drum for a change, I guess they don&#39;t like the spinner bait!<br /><br />The flow was 42K cfs, then down to 27K, then at 7 back up to 42K. The water temp was 47.
