[Archived] What did you Catch Today?

[Melvinp]

Lost 2 muskie yesterday one bro had on a crab and one I had hit the savage gear trout. Wasn't paying attention should of had it. Bite is picking up.

What an epic day today. A push of Cohos lasted all day and all 6 of use feel like we are well beyond our years. We only kept 3, the freshest of the freshest if you will but the amount of hookups was at a level we’ve never experienced up here. If they weren’t mouth hooked, a quick palm of the reel was an easy decision, the next one will be.

A little something to take home.

Meat in the freezer or smoker

Went below kinzua dam. Just a bunch small fish smallmouth and rock bass. No walleye.
Tomorrow is another day.

I have family out that way. I was there as a kid. I think I remember an educational thing about the dam in that location? When the water was super low there was a city or something at the bottom of the lake. I remember seeing a bridge about 10ft down teaming with fish. Again, many years ago and it could be a different body of water.

By far the smallest fish I have ever caught on a line. Very shallow local stream. Is that a baby brookie? The yellow dot made me think it was but figured I'd ask those that know.

My fishing mates and my neighbors this time around. We did do a trade for one that was already Cajun smoked.

Neat looking dam. I didn’t know that it released that way. Interesting.

Many years ago this was great place to fish but it has changed and I think over fishing is really changed these waters. Still a fun place. Now I think certain times of year is how you have to hit it.

Bottom and top release. Very big dam.

Looks like a shiner to me. When I do a Google Image Search, there are several minnow results that look similar.

Jealous.

Another good hard day fishing lost 2 more nice muskie. Saw a couple more hookups. Great weather cooler overcast days. Waters still warm.

Like melvinp says just another fish tale.

Waded a stream near us for 2 hours. Slow start but ended up with 4 Fallfish, 1 on the fly. Ended with 2 trout on small curly tail grubs with spinner jig heads. I never knew that was a thing for trout but now I do.

Road runner style. I throw both but this year the road runner style produced everywhere we threw it.

Back on the Farm, when we weren’t moving fast enough, Dad would say “c’mon, get the lead out.”
