9.98 pound smallmouth bass landed from the Indian River
UPDATE: Bruce Kraemer's giant smallmouth bass was certified as the new Michigan state record a couple days later by the Michigan DNR.
Bruce Kraemer of Indian River, Michigan likes to fish the Indian River. It's just a few hundred feet from his house so it's convenient to fish his favorite shore fishing point. On September 11 Bruce was using his favorite rig he calls the tri-rig - a three way rig with a weight dropper. Bruce does this to keep the gobies from gobbling up his live nightcrawler he uses for bait.
