With decades of hands-on experience on the Susquehanna River, Captain Campbell shares timely insights on water conditions, seasonal patterns, and recent catches. These reports reflect the subtle shifts in fish behavior and offer practical guidance on bait selection, presentation, and productive areas along the river.

The Susquehanna River continues to be a favorite among anglers for its diverse fishery, scenic views, and consistent bass action. From smallmouth bass to flathead catfish and walleye, the river supports a range of species that provide year-round opportunities. Many of our guests ask about catch potential, safety, and species size—and yes, the Susquehanna is home to trophy-class fish, including flatheads weighing over 40 pounds. For those interested in eating their catch, we encourage following local advisories, which vary by area and species.

Captain Campbell offers both full-day and half-day guided trips, tailored to fit your schedule and goals. The 8-hour private charter starts at 7:00 AM for $375 and focuses on smallmouth bass using light tackle techniques. For those with limited time, our 4-hour morning charter is a great option at $250, delivering a focused outing with personalized guidance. No matter which trip you choose, gear is provided and strategies are adjusted based on current conditions.

Fishing tactics shift with the seasons, and our reports help anglers stay in step with those changes. From spring’s active topwater opportunities to the precision of deep-water jigging in the colder months, each season offers a different approach. Captain Campbell’s insights give you an edge, making every trip more productive and enjoyable. Be sure to check back regularly and stay connected to what’s happening on the river before your next outing.
