      "question": "When is bass season on the Delaware?",
      "answer": "Smallmouth bass fishing on the Delaware peaks from June through October. The best topwater action is in June-July during low light. Fall fishing (September-October) produces the biggest fish. We fish bass when trout water gets too warm — it's the perfect summer alternative.",
