Two days fishing on the Susquehanna River

Type: Chesapeake
Region: Northern
Location: Susquehanna River

Friday night fished below the Conowingo Dam and Saturday at Port Deposit. Between the two days caught and released over 75 white perch, a few catfish, and a 20 inch Largemouth Bass. The largemouth had a 13 inch girth and is estimated to be 4.3 pounds. The largemouth was released healthy after measurements and pictures. Once hooked the large mouth jumped out of the water like a missle and gave a great fight on light tackle. Fished with nightcrawlers and bloodworms on #6 Eagle Claw spinner hooks. The nightcrawlers out produced the fresh bloodworms between the two days. Few perch were kept for the grill and fryer.
