Before the heat wave gets here I figured I'd go and harass the bluegills some more on my local water. Pushed off from the beach and had lines in the water at 4:45 and the first perch on the ruler at ...

After getting all my work done about noontime, I took a chance that 870 would be recovering from his full belly Saturday and might be in the mood to take a jaunt and gave him a call. He called back...

I accepted another invite from 870 to fish yet another one of his private access ponds last night and after the recent wet weather, I was happy to accept. 3 trips, 3 different ponds. We launched...

Yes Sir, those are definitely picture worthy, nice fish and story. And a fresh water mussel, well that's a first for me seeing one of those come in the boat!
Did it put up much of a fight and did...

Title pretty much says it all. Shoved off into a pretty good breeze at 4:30 this afternoon, air temp at 73. Didn't take any electronics with me as I knew I'd be casting the edges so I don't know what...

Chef "W" lays out another spread! Looks REAL good, friend.

Don't you just love it when you hook a biggun' when you were expecting the average joe? Good read, thanks for posting.

I'm with SuperDave; that's a NICE fish.....the mushrooms not so much.

That sure looks like it was a fun trip, great colors there. Thanks for posting.

Please finish it!
Have you thought about taking something like Benadryl BEFORE you start a session? Maybe it would lessen the reaction to where you could work comfortably.

That's a good 1st trip in anybody's book. That's a nice 'seed at nearly 9"; love the fight the big sunnies give. You did way better on crappie than I did on my 1st trip. Happy to hear you got out...

That's a fine bunch of fish! You guys sure had your hands full with those beauties; those fillets will fill up the bowl quickly. Super happy he decided to ride along. I hope his arm is OK from all...

Interesting on how different folks view which are more important to leave alone when bed fishing spawning 'gills, males or females. There is a fella on YT by the handle of 330 Maniac who catches a...

Yesterday was a perfect spring day here in CT and I headed out to cap it off with a trip to the pond, looking to harvest some of those nice pre-spawn 'gills I found on my last trip. I pushed off just...

Ah, the sacrifices we make to get a fish landed. That's a heck of a nice catfish on super light line and tackle. Good job!

Yowser! I'm wincing just reading that...

Dang I wish we had those up here in New England, those are biggun's! Nice job!

While fishing with 870 last Sunday, we made tentative plans to fish another of his sweet spots on Thursday after work. We were able to make that happen and launched just before 5pm. We knew it was...

Whoops, wrong picture. Can a mod please delete the 'gill from this post? I tried and can't figure out how to do it from my end. Thanks!

I got done a bit early at work and headed out to one of my favorite waters to see what was bitin'. Launched about 4:15 with the air temp at 73 and water temps at about 65, under partly cloudy skies...

Thanks, FF. Had all the snow melted yet in Western Maine? I think you guys got dumped on with some late storms that gave us just rain. Have you been out chasing the crappie yet?

Got a call from 870 this morning asking if I had any interest in joining him for an impromptu fishing trip today. Weather was iffy here at home (it would soon clear and be a nice day)but I said yes...

I've seen it often but usually in early to mid summer, not early season. I've tossed a lot of baits at them with nary a hit or hookup. I just know they're laughing at me for trying when I see them...

Found the time this afternoon for a short trip to open my '24 season. I launched about 2:30, just as the mostly cloudy sky began to loosen up and let the sun come through after a gloomy morning. Air...

That's a nice lookin' hunka beef!

That's a good way to start off the season, a taste of what's to come for sure.

Wow, what a giant, congrats on the PB!
