Been living at the Tippy River State Park for a month now. Been fishing the river there. Son and I throw some small cranks usually. Not uncommon for us to reel in one or two fish a night - sometimes more. Last week he had a nice hit and reeled in a alb 9 ounce smallie. I considered this a nice fish, would others agree? Most of the fish we get are around eight inches in length. Still, we are having fun fishing together.
