Oh, I should have clarified that she doesn't consider sunfish fishing to be "only something children would do" but rather "like catching children, since they're often so excitable and willing to bite".
I love sunfish.

Sent from my iPhone--Sorry Marnie -- My wife and I floated the SF Shenandoah virtually every weekend the last 2 summers, until we had a baby....I generally fly fishing while standing off of the bow, while she spin fishes from the stern.If you want to catch the big smallmouth, my advice is to cast in the aforementioned shaded and/or spots very near to structure ("fishy" spots) out in front of the canoe. If you can plot a huge popper or streamer in front of the fish before they're aware of you, you get more hook-ups. Aside from that, just get out there a lot and experiment until you find what works and/or what makes you happy. If you like to "beach" the canoe and drift a small woolly bugger through some sections with big redbreast sunfish instead of trying for 2-3 big smallies per trip, go for it. If you want to squeeze the belly of a fallfish to hear it gurgle, go for it.I'm happier catching 50+ fat sunfish than I am having shots at 2-3 big smallies. My wife tends toward the latter and calls my pursuit of sunfish "fishing for children" ;). Both are acceptable.Gene

Also explore some of the back channels around the river bends as they have held some pigs in the past. Word of warning as last summers float led two of our canoes down one of these channels and we interrupted a lovely couple in the midst of some mating ritual.....made ever more awkward by the fact they didn't see or hear us until we were right on them...Very awkward. Did I mention crawfish pattens are great?Gregg
