    Worst year in many years at Talquin. Hard to find the fish bunched-up and when one does, bite is slow. Had good months in December and February. Rest of the year, got a lot of work done on my RV and porch and drank lots of Coors lights!

    I single pole jig only My worst year of the last 5! I have caught fish but really had to work for them. Probably less than 50% of what I caught in previous year. However..... I never once thought “Man I wish I was workin “
    Can’t wait for next year.

    I haven't fished Monroe, Crescent, or Harney, which I had done last year. I caught the ultra light bug and have had an excellent time with the 2 lb rigs I have. Last year the river stopped flowing and I had a bite going that was almost off the charts, but there has been more rain this year so that bite hasn't surfaced this year. I'll troll again soon and will show when I do.

    Tom and I have had a very good speck season here in NE Florida. Dead lake was hot in March. We do not keep any fish under 12 inches and have been getting enough of those to feed our families and give a friend a few. The count of throw backs under 12" is normally running around 50 fish. We spider rig jigs 5 rods a side off the bow and I normally drag a jig on a float way back and it catches a few. For me it is a lot more fun to real in a fish then to swing them into the boat with a 16 to 20 foot pole. I tell Tom that is just one step higher then using a yo yo or a bush bob. This month the fish have been running smaller with just a few going a pound and a half. Don

    Well it was an, on again off again (more off than on) year for me. About the time I think I have a good pattern and can take some friends it goes to crap. Three weeks ago caught 50 from one spot (nicest average fish of the year) the next week zip..........
    Seems like more and more pressure on the specks every year hope they had a good spawn this year..............but still not like the pressure on the shrimp, holy crap 12 midnight and 100 boats out shrimpin in the middle of the week
