First time on this lake, was told there were BIG bass here. My 4/0 hook is bigger than this bass. Very shallow lake, about 6-7 ft deep with lots of vegetation.
My seventh trout & the biggest at Houghtons Pond. I let a young boy, who was passing by, helped me reel it in to shore. It was a funny moment when the poor boy ...more freaked when he saw the size of the fish flopping around at the water's edge & ran off to safety.
The fish were biting today at Houghtons Pond. This beauty on the first cast plus three more rainbows caught after that within ten minutes!

It was a tough day of bank fishing along the Charles with SkyKing1. From Waltham to Watertown, only 2 LMB & 1 yellow perch were caught on live bait & a paddle ...more boarder on a floating senko when it crossed over our lines. This one was caught under the dock underneath our feet!
Details: Chain Pickerel
From last week, Nhåt's first time catching a chain pickerel. Took him & his brother trout fishing but ended up they both caught a pickerel.
Trying out a new location with Skyking1. Fishing was tough. Water level dropped about 4 feet with milfoil sprouting on top of the surface. I'd cast my bait to ...more a log sticking out of the water & caught 2 bass. First bass was a small one. The second bass was my new PB weighing 5lbs 2oz on 10lb braid with 6lb mono leader on a light drag setting.
