Captain Dave Kerrigan’s Fishing Report for week ending April 14.
This week started off a little slow but gained momentum as it went on. Warmer stable water led to great catches with a few real monster smallies in the mix. Unfortunately by weeks end rain and water releases from Raystown jacked the Susky and Juniata Rivers back up over 10’ and places to fish were fewer. Before the rise the fish were setting up in usual spawning areas and munching down on our Campground Special tubes. Also coming on strong during a weekend group outing with the Ennis Electric folks were Big Mouth Spinnerbaits and Shakey Heads. As always new owner Tractor Mike and the folks at Riverfront Campground provided great service and helped with getting our groups in and out!! Thanks Mike!
