Three Hours of Fishing, 2 Fish, Definitely Worth it.

I spent 3 hours this afternoon/early-evening fishing... I had no luck until back-tracking to the car .....



We had a LOT of wind from the east today and I decided to cast a Strike King Spinner Bait white skirt, white willow leaf/Colorado blade combination along a bridge/overpass that people ride 4-wheelers on. The 30-inch or so Pike is the biggest one I've caught in probably three years.

I caught a much smaller pike near the car but that one wasn't worth a photograph.




This smallmouth I caught yesterday and quickly snapped the picture before releasing it since it wasn't much size and not the season yet.

Fishing Pics June 23rd

Yes, I know it's been 2 weeks since I've posted any fishing pictures, but the fishing has STUNK since about June 5th, when I last posted to THIS blog.


This 13 inch smallmouth was caught on a Texas Rigged Gulp Floating Crawler. I really like the floating crawler with a 1/8 oz weight texas rigged. It falls slow and stands vertical in the water.



THIS one is caught on a 6 inch jerkbait, I don't remember the brand bait but it really hasn't caught any really large fish, just these 10-12 inch smallies



THIS guy fell off the Reed Runner spinner bait I threw soon as I lifted it out of the water. The camera was right there next to me so I just clicked then let the fish go back to hopefully grow larger.

I caught a couple other small smallmouth bass, but when I say small in THIS case, I mean around 7 inches.
