Here is my first fish from Sunday Nov 8th on lake erie fishing by myself.
Great smallie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOW!
That's a beauty.
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Here is another view, same fish. I caught 5 smallies all on a pointer 100 deep diver. Water temp was 51 degrees. Fish were still spread out.
I had one bait 12 feet back from the boat in a rod holder while I turned the boat. I looked back and my rod got slamed. Heck of a bonus. 32" long & 12lb-4oz.
Last bass of the day before heading home.
That is awesome, take me fishing PLEASE ;D
Can I come over to play PLEASE!!!!
Those are some SWEEET SMB!!
Had a long time buddy come over yesterday for some smallie action. His biggest smallie to date was a 4lb-15 oz. I gave him my hot bait to use for the day and he outfished me 6 bass to my 4. Here a pic of new personal best, right at 6lbs.
nice fishing, Dwight! Very cool of you to share with your friend. i love it when I do well, but I love it just as much when I can show someone how to do well, too. Really validates what your doing. nice work all around!
I umm.....I think I hate you!
Nice fishing gents!
Great fish, Dwight.
I just saw one of your post in the other species section and thought, "I wonder how his fall on erie has been."
That was literally 3 minutes ago.
Great job, as usual.
Oh, if his was at 6, what was yours at, and why don't you start a guide service?
Truely awesome small mouth bass! Congrats!!!
New angler,
My first fish weighed 6lb-4oz. If I was a guide, fishing might become work rather than fun. Besides I'm retired .
Those are truly amazing smallies Dwight. Looks like if I want to catch a smallie over 6 lbs., I'll have to fish Erie.....

Nah...You guys in Maine produce 6 lb smallies.
8-)
Maine state record is 8-0.
The 8th was THE day to be out on Erie, a friend and I spent the late morning/early afternoon out there and put over 50 in the boat between us, no giants, but nothing under 3, and each of us got a mid 5. Tubes and or dropshot, didn't matter they bit both. Funny thing is we were smack dab in the middle of a 30+ boat tournament (we were not in it) and every one was catching fish, on.................about a 2 square mile area, elbow to elbow we were stacked in there and so were the fish. Only place in the world for SM like it........and the fish are just freaks as well.
Geez, I need to get up to Lake Erie! I keep saying every year I'm coming up, but I never do.
Those are some awesome fish! The smallies here in the Juniata aren't even close to that size
Awesome smallies Dwight. Glad to see your enjoying your retirement.
Great smallies!! I can't wait til spring to get up to PI bay to try to get into some smallies!
Another bunch of Erie monsters!
Nice bass!!
Erie is truly a world class smallie fishery. Beauty fish! If anyone ever gets the chance to fish erie, don't pass it up, you won't be disappointed...just remember to hang on
Just think how big they will be when we get there in April....nice fish...BIG CONGRATS>.........

Are you part of the Ohio/Georgia group thats stays at the Colonial Motel the last two weeks of April? If so my buddies & I always enjoy your posting your fishing report on the fisherie site. Tim said you guys are pretty good sticks!
Guilty.....
Milepost43 I knew that was you. Anyhow you guys usually score a 7 or 8 on a jerkbait so post up those pics this spring. Welcome to the best bass site.
Those are some really beautiful and BIG Smallies, Dwight.
Congrats !!

Those are some beauties!
