Mine Falls Bridge / Whipple St Entrance - Nashua, NH Fishing Report
Mine Falls Bridge - Whipple St Entrance
It's (part) of the Nashua River and usually nothing to write home about, however, some of the lazy waterways that loop around Mine Falls do have some monstrous Largemouth Bass, that is if you can get around the thousands of Bluegill and Yellow Perch.
If you do see a big ol' Larry in here, there is a good reason it got as big as it did.
(To cut down on the amount of Hotspot clutter, I don't list Bluegill or Fallfish catches unless they are a potential record.)

Mine Falls / Whipple St. Catch
- # of Fish Caught: 1
- Water Type: freshwater
- Type of Fish: Largemouth Bass
- Fish Length (Max): 20 inches
- Fish Weight (Max): 4 lbs. 6 oz.
- Bait Type: Nightcrawler Check Prices
- Bait Details: Neon green 2-way spinner hook.
- Location Details: I was taking a moment to look over the bridge at the huge schools of Bluegill and decided to dangle a worm over the 15' high bridge... not intending to catch any larger than a Bluegill.
I saw a rather hefty Largemouth Bass taking a slow swim over to the bait; much to my surprise, it took it. Even more surprising was the two man effort it took to safely get the fish ashore.
The Bass was either very old or had simply seen better days. It had several small, round pock marks in it's scales, a dark green-grey sickly color and didn't put up much of a fight.
It's mouth was, however, large enough to fit my fist into.
One of these days I'll find the picture...
