I've been looking for smallmouth fishing like this with lots of numbers but haven't found it yet. Glad you did. What a nice common carp that was. It looks long too so I'd bet it was a master angler fish!
I caught 2 really nice smallmouth and a bunch or rock bass in the Kankakee (my next upload, should be out in 3 days) on a weedless ned rigged EFH Siren (orange). I make/sell them on engineeringhooksets.com! ($6/pack of 9). And thanks!
@engineringhooksets. Hey you think you're killing a small mouse there at the state park there's a creek that's a third of the size of that that you'll kill three and 4 lb small mouth all day I'm not going to name it on the channel there but it's only about 25 minutes south of there no north I mean my bad
History made! 😋 Congrats on that cow, despite your original disappointment. Pretty impressive on that light gear. Nice smallies too. I would say that was a great wading trip.
My uncle was the king of smallies there. And sadly drowned real close to where you taped this video.
RIP uncle Mike Sovinski
@@lonnieknotts450 I'm very sorry to hear that. I'm sure he was a great guy and a better angler. RIP
This is where grew up fishing!! I love it

It wasn't really lots of numbers. We waded for ~3 hrs, caught about 5 each. Thanks for watching, man!
We needa give him more likes he deserves it
Great river smallies. Congrats on the pb even if it's a carp.
Thanks, man!
haven’t seen the full vid yet but we all know it’s gonna be a banger
Based on your username I'm guessing you wont like it lol
Awesome video! Looks like a blast, thanks for sharing!
Also, congrats on the lifetime PB! That's pretty cool!
i was born and raised in Kankakee and still live there . grew up 4 blocks west of the dam . and those carp WILL hit anything if hungry enough.
Fall River smallies is a tough combo to beat. Great vid!
I fish that river every week. Watch for holes! They will take ya.
@arngnsn Yeah those will get ya, in one of my other Kankakee videos my buddy fell into one, haha
Is the beginning right off the state park?
@@Chiefsheesh yep
Huge carp!!👏👏👍
I'm a K3 River Rat! Check out River Isle. Operation slaying of all walleye and huge Northern pike baby
Nice one man! Looks like a decent place for smallmouth. Congrats on the pb!
Congrats on the pb!

Awesome day out on the water! Cool to see those smallies in the fast current and that massive carp!
Awesome video! I'm going to the kankanee river state park this weekend! Any recommendations on baits or location for this time of year? 💪 💪

too bad it was a carp. but hey still a PB. rarely do people catch them on a swimbait too. pretty awesome!
What reel do you recommend for switching between salt and fresh water, I was thinking of the sick stick 2000
The sick stick isnt meant for salt water, it will corrode very quickly. Just buy a saltwater reel and use it in freshwater when you need to
Do you have Fishbrain?
Yeah, I dont use it very much tho
great video ! l upload fishing videos in my channel to!
