Anyone ever tried. Me and my older bro went to summers ago and hammered them. Using small artificial baits and chunks of worms. in two hours went through two boxes of worms and didnt want to go into town, so we used anything else. Probably caught 20 a piece, and more dinks

I was planning on giving a go this year. What was the biggest one you caught?

i think it was 13 or 14 inches. Once you come out of sunnyside, go under the bridge and you see that old boat dock, then there is that cove near just on the other side. if the water is up you can see big rocks near the shore. Jig just about anything down there and fish on!!

We catch quite a few little ones on Foster. Did catch a Couple nicer ones last year around two pounds right where you said you caught yours. A friend of mine caught some real nice yellow perch there last fall also.

two years ago we caught a bunch during summer time on the left along the channel ledge dropshoting and tubes on the bottom. a bunch of them 10-12" range caught a 2lb largemouth also.

Amatuers jk! The real fun is running up river from sunnsyide, if you hit it right and there is enough water in the river, thats where the good ones are! Largemouth fishing used to be decent in foster 20 years ago, the smallmouth are pretty small on average, the biggest one i have seen caught was 3 lbs or so. Upriver!

to bad they want us to catch and kill them all!!!

we headed up river but stopped to eat lunch at cast out a trout line, by then we had no drinks and it was hot, so we went back and hit up the Mcdonalds in Sweethome

I talked to a guy last year that just slayed them in May on topwater! It was an early bite.
