It's been a while since I've fished the sweetwater, so figured I'd give it a go near my office this morning before work. I was not disappointed!

All fish were caught simply on ultra light tackle drifting crawlers off the bottom. Ended up with three bass to 4.5lbs, two rainbow trout at 13" and 14" a brown trout at 12", a sucker, several fallfish, bluegills and yellow perch. I was fishing in the upper gunpowder.

Wow nice!

Did you just have a small split shot above the hook or did you also use a bobber?

[Shady]

Yes, just a couple split shot 1' above hook to allow a slow drift.

Wow, that's quite a range of species all in one trip. Congrats!

Ryan - I just sent you a PM.

[Shady]

I don't fish freshwater often anymore, but after nearly 20 years fishing this spot, I still love it!

Howard - PM sent in response

No trout today, but the big gills and bass were hungry.

I have been meaning to get up that way for a while. Looks like you had some fun! Congrats on the variety.
