The West Fork River is some of the best small mouth bass fishing in the state.
When people ask why I fish the river so much, I simply reply you never know what you’re going to catch.
I have caught musky, small mouth, drum, catfish, rock bass, largemouth, and carp all in one day.
There isn’t one stretch of river I haven’t caught fish in from Good Hope to the Monongahela.
The sights, the sounds, and the pure adrenaline from catching a 20 pound musky in a kayak is unmatched.
If you looking for great fishing in your backyard look no further than The West Fork, grab a kayak and a pole and float a few miles of this beautiful river.
You will not be disappointed.
