[Archived] What did you Catch Today?

[Solitario Lupo]

It might be small but they sure are a pretty fish. Not being raised by the hatchery.

I agree. There were plenty of them too. Saw one around 10" and solid but extra spooky. No size to them but seeing their colors and knowing they aren't stocked makes it a nice change of pace.

Delaware is brown for two or three weeks now. It get clearer every day.

Don't mind the awkward grip but this was 1 of 2 on Sat. I hit the Delaware Water Gap. The water was a bit muddy. I worked for 5 hours and got TWO Pickerel for my effort. (Both were 20+"). That is still a grind.

Why the Grumpy face Pop's?

I went to steal fishes from Grem's Big Pond......Mauch Chunk Lake. I was jigging and so it was a great day to use my newly rebuild antique reels. I did well: 14 8-9.5" Gills, One 13" Perch and a smallish 12-13" LMB. Used Crawlers and also Mealies. These were caught on the bottom at 35+/-'

Feel Better Melvin? would you like a blast from the past? Here is what I'm cleaning repairing and reselling a couple at a time:

 

[MB3]

Stopped at Goldsboro and it was a giant weed bed up front. I stopped at Tobyhanna state park and it wasn't much better. Another slow day with 3 Pickerel and this bass. Grinding through weeds these days.

Wow that’s a nice bass who would ever go to Goldsboro? You got to come over to gremcat country. Seriously I did very well today at Mauch chunk. I caught a bunch of bass a good number of bluegills and a very nice perch. All in deep water on the bottom. Wasn’t it a nice day? I’m still out here.

I fished Mauch Chunk twice and it was one of the nicer lakes I've been on. No weeds except the back part from what I remember.

 

[Blackcat Outdoors]

Got the kyack out for a while tonight.




Last one was the daughter's. Caught a few other little smallies, most around the same size as the first two.

Did get a visit from another angler though.

Funny, never fished MC lake, can’t get past the creek. I’d rather catch 15-18” trout there in the spring with the occasional 20” mixed in than fish almost anywhere else in the world. Says a lot about that little slice of heaven. Even prefer it to AK! This spring was a huge let down. No water and fish where dumbies. Maybe one semi good challenging day there. Usually I hit it hard for 2-3 weeks in the spring. First year it just didn’t work out for me. Never fished a lake in PA I don’t think.

 

[Gremcat]

If I could buy and privatize about 1/8th mile, if we are dreaming keep it flowing like early spring all season, I’d never leave lol

 

[A-5]

Very rarely is it just me and him. That sucker hit a 4” top water bait

 

[MB3]

My first fish on a whopper plopper (which I don't care for) was an aggressive bluegill lol He looks super happy with his catch.

A representative sample from the Swattie yesterday. There were also some chubs and fallfish. I had some issues getting my phone camera to work through the plastic waterproof container.

I almost forgot, I saw 2 bald eagles
