[Archived] What did you Catch Today?

[HenryDavid]

Caught a few smallies and 4 Rock Bass Sat. night. The bass seemed to have begun moving toward areas with more oxygenated current. I went 3 of 8 on fly rod popper, had some nice bass throw the hook. Got a couple late evening on top water lures - the plopper

Pretty fish.

BTW I got to use these yesterday. killer for larger sized panfish., $1.79 at cabbalas, $1.25 at Walmart. 1" long body. Replace the hook as mine didn't last a day.

Buncha dinks. But three Gills as big as my hand and one small Sheilafish. I like these larger Pickerel. I’m gonna get one bigger someday…fair warning to that team from Greentown.View attachment 5469View attachment 5470View attachment 5468

Finally got one this year.

Wow, Congrats. What type of lure?

 

[Don]

YESTERDAY! Skunked. Gouldsboro is closing up. Still lots of open water down at the end but I forgot the trolling motor yesterday and I wasn’t feeling inspire, in the heat, to tie all the way down there. I’ll switch it up a little with other nice lakes until October or November.

Wow, Congrats. What type of lure?

A plastic zoom craw.

 

[Don]

Why not your own Craws? Their the only craws I've caught fish on.

 

[Solitario Lupo]

I make them to. It's just a bigger size I got. Got them in the 2.5, 3, and 4 in size. I do like the crayfish patterns.

Sounds like a great day. Even better meal for all that hard work.

 

[Don]

Don were you using spearing for bait?

 

[Don M]

Spearing and fluke belly.

Maybe a favorite though. He even caught a fish but his tiny rod didn’t help him keep it hooked

 

[Gremcat]

Hot and hotter! Luckily managed to catch the two fish on my list. Not season for sails or tuna and guide wanted no part of me trying to hook the 1k lbs bull shark that kept sniping our yellowtail. I was eyeing his bigger rods but closest was rigged for the chance encounter of a Marlin or sailfish.

Had a king bite me off. Had a random wahoo hit an outrigger ballyhoo feather we dragged behind us in wake but missed hook by 1” and bit off 3/4 of the ballyhoo.
