Try wading in the heat. It makes 85 and humid feel comfortable. Stick with sections of a river/creek that aren’t super deep, unless pools that have edges that you can wade through.
This 100%
Wet wading in the summertime is glorious. Smallmouth bite stays hot all through July and August and September. Can’t beat it.
I got the boat running in the river too. I’ve taken it up to Fishermans cove and Parker a couple times now. But even with the boat Im mainly just looking for sections to hop out and pick it apart while wading. I kind of do the same thing when I am in the kayak too.
Me and the girlfriend took the boat up to kinzua on Sunday and camped at Morrison. First time I’ve been to that part of the lake. We had the lake to ourselves pretty much from Sunday evening until we got off the water at noon today (Tuesday).
I only got one fish but it was a new PB pike. He was about 30”, so not a giant but pretty big for me. I’ve only ever caught baby pike up there. Pretty great trip except the deer flies were RELENTLESS.
