Pre-Fishing the Susquehanna River for a Kayak Bass Tournament! (Harrisburg, PA)

In this video, I hit the Susquehanna River near downtown Harrisburg in my Jackson Big Rig kayak for a little pre-fishing and practice ahead of an upcoming kayak bass tournament on Saturday. Conditions were far from ideal — the water was high, muddy, and full of debris, with grass, logs, and even a noticeable rise in water level while I was out. The strong current made things challenging, but I managed to find a few solid smallmouth bass and dial in a strategy for tournament day.

If you’re fishing in tough river conditions or prepping for a kayak tournament, this one’s for you. Tight lines!

Gear Used:
Kayak: Jackson Big Rig
Target Species: Smallmouth Bass
