Junita River


I wanted to fish the Juniata River again and do a show about wading and fishing small rivers.
I googled the Juniata River and the search hit on a website"http://www.centralpafishing.com/."
This was what i was looking for...! What a fantastic site ! Check it out!
I made a phone call to Juan Vereute to book a fishing trip with him and discovered he worked for Penn State too. It wasn't long we were both talking fishing and Penn State.
We made arrangements to meet along the Juniata and both were hoping the fish would bite.
Well with his expertise and knowledge of the Juniata it didn't take long to catch fish.
We talked about fishing strategy and the lures we wanted to use. We both wanted some topwater action, but it was fall and the leaves were falling on the water snagging our treble hooks, thus killing the action of the lure. We adjusted and he threw a Yum Dinger and I a Berkley Jerk Shad. Make a long story short we caught a lot of fish; nice plump smallies.
The water was still a little warm for the big bite to happen but we caught some nice fish.
I have a fishing buddy for life, Juan Vereute.
Thanks Juan !

I had a great time catching smallies, talking shop(fishing), and filming the show! Hope we can coordinate another fishing trip some time in the future. Great blog!!!
