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!

Happy Easter all, He is Risen Indeed!

Reading on Slab's personal page about the motor he's been fussing with brought this to mind. Classic piece of music but the story is what is prompting me to post this. Gotta watch all the way to the...

I'm not quite ready to sit on a boat seat yet but at least the start is in sight after a long layoff. I don't want an early season skunk to start off the season!

Took a drive around to my favorite ponds and found open water, ice is gone. Never got what I would call safe ice for ice fishing so it's been a fishing-less winter around here.
Now we just need...

That's a monster!!

That'd be me; can't stand 'em. No hot shrimp dishes at all.
Cocktail shrimp with lemon is a whole different story.

A rig to be proud of for sure. Thanks for posting and enjoy that beauty!

Not hi vis, clear or stealthy would be preferred.
I'm no pro and would like to believe that the 4lb Stren I'm using actually snaps at around 4 pounds; I've never tried to confirm it in any way. If...
