Details: Largemouth Bass
Just bounced it of the bottom. Blind casting because there is no visible structure to target except for one small point. Pulled a couple others that were only about ...more a half pound and wrapped up with this guy. Shoreline is too deep to see any beds but I was able to barely spot two small bass sitting right off the shore. Only my second time fishing this pond but it was stocked about 3 years ago.
Details: Red (redfish) Drum with a Custom painted skitterwalk working it like a ticking clock, nice and steady no stops. Light south winds, low pressure, clear water. 3 weeks ...more ago and the school hasn't been back to that spot.
Had a big school crushing a TON of shrimp so I tied on a topwater to make those reds angry enough to hit. As you can see it worked well and I was able to compete ...more with the massive amount of bait in that grass. Worked it slow and steady to annoy those reds. Caught 5 but only kept 2 because I had to work that night and didn't want to clean another!
Details: Spotted (Speckled) Trout with a Birds, birds, and more birds. Gulp swimmin mullet chartreuse dead sticking on bottom, but they preferred tops (see description below). ...more I got spanked on the water. None smaller than 19" both mine @ 20"
Got out fished so bad last weekend. I worked gulp in the whole water column just to find out they wanted it set on the bottom not moving. My buddy threw skitterwalks ...more and had 7 trout and 3 reds by 11:30. My wrist was jacked and it was bad enough just paddling so I strayed away from top waters but I definitely should have just sucked it up. Working one group of birds for hHours

Hit one if my ponds and double hooked this little guy. Solver hook in the cheek and the black stinger in the lip. He wasn't going anywhere. So glad I broke my ...more "no keeper skunk" I had going on!
Details: Hardhead Catfish with a Maniac mullet fast sink chartreuse
Here's another pic of the baby (what I think is a hardhead) kinda cool cause I've never experienced fish spitting up eggs down here like this thing did. ...more Just one after another after another.
Details: Hardhead Catfish with a Maniac mullet fast sink chartreuse
Down at the pier all we got was one keeper flounder that I dropped through the slats during the photo op. But @troutmaster12 pulls up an 8" hard head that spit ...more out about 20 eggs. Not sure if she was big enough to actually spawn or had just raided another fishes bed cause these things were the size of my pinky nail. Yes 20 out of an 8" fish
Details: Inshore Slam (trout/flounder/redfish) with a McCollum park wade
Gonna hit McCollum park in the morning if I can squeeze in before the rain for a wade. Gonna get there around 6am throwing soft plastics. Open invite.
Details: Largemouth Bass with a h2o squarebill crank 3-5ft
Two slow cranking the trees. Mid day slow cranking, or working worms deep and slow or pitching the shade is key to the bite. Noon = deep fish (at least most of the ...more time) and they usually want it presented at a crawl. Weightless worms will kill too. I'll give it maybe another hour or so.
