Let's Talk About Bowfin
I haven't caught one in years probably 15 years. I used to catch them all the time when I was a kid on crawfish. The ones I caught had blue tongues I I remember correctly I have Polaroids of them some where just to give an idea of how long ago I hooked into one. I fish them same waters now and don't catch them.

How Will The Effect The Fishing
Two days ago it was 80 out been pretty nice all week manage a few fish water temps were 54*. Today I wake up there is snow on the ground it's still coming down and it's 31 out!!! Seriously common spring! I have a good friend coming down tomorrow for a all day kayak fishing trip. Tomorrow is supposed to be 46* I don't think the water will have cooled that much and I almost want to think river fish are less affected by the pressure and weather changes at least in my past experience. We were gonna possibly hit one of the lakes but if the fish are gonna be in a funk ill rule out the lake ad focus on the small bodies of water.

That kayak is by far the best thing I have ever bought fishing wise. So many spots I can fish now like where I am getting these small mouth and trout. To shallow to get to by boat and in the middle of the woods all posted up along the banks. It's a hole that's 10' deep in a creek that averages maybe 2' in most accessible spots. It's my new favorite spot.

Iv been using it for about a month now caught a few trout and pike on it and 2 bass ill probably te more bass on it now that the small mouth are running good. So far I love it I have been a using it a bit when trout fishing it's been set down in the mud a few times. I did have a real nice trout on it it would have spooled me but I have 20# braid and I went for a little jog down the river in tow lol. It held up good reel smooth on the drag even with the trout screaming down stream. I lost it when it turned and came back at me I couldent reel fast enough. My buddy ended up hooking it again on his outfit and landed it after I tired it out. He fishes a Stella though got it on like stringy rubber egg things lol. Over all I like it alot ill be fishing it more an more though ill do a little review which reminds me I need to do one on my villain some one asked me to on here after I fished it a bit.

Anyone Else Have The Clear Coat Peeling Off Their Veritas?
The anodizing is fading on mine but that will happen on anything it's just from grimy hands. All my old paintball guns anodizing faded where I held it.

Yeah I haven't heard much on them either I stumbled across one miss marked at gander and had a new Nikon scope in the cart for my .243 I asked to hold the premier and if I could get it at the 199 price. I put the scope back and walked out with the premier they sold it to me for 189.99 I almost went back and grabbed another.

When Do You Start Throwing Top Water
It might have been but that's usually just little like idk how to explain it but these fish were jumping clear out of the water some times a foot or more darting all over groups of em. In the summer when I see it I toss a weightless fluke in the middle and hold on. I did throw a mini A rig but it swam funky.

When Do You Start Throwing Top Water
I check water temps the ultra cheap way I bought a thermometer that floats made for a fish tank and I just tie it to a piece of para cord and toss it over the side of the kayak. Though last night I had no para cord so I dropped it in one of the holes in the kayak it was still the same water.

When Do You Start Throwing Top Water
When do you guys start throwing top water lures? I was out last night an seen tons of minnows busting out of the water escaping bigger fish below. Even seen a few fish feeding on top couldent tell what they were but considering there are trout, pike, gar, carp, bass, even king salmon are being taken within a few miles of this spot in the same water anything is possible. I was catching smallmouth in almost every area they are in the strong now and fighting pretty good and aggressive. The water temps last week were 41* yesterday it was 54* I thought about tieing a fluke on but decided against it. I'm making another trip Sunday all day and am wondering if I Should grab my top water box and throw some spooks, an Sammy's

I have a premier 20 and love it its so buttery smooth feels nice on the rod and in my hand. Iv been comparing it to the stradic Ci4 2500 side by side and prefer the premier a d not because I'm an Abu guy it just feels nicer the stradic knob it's tiny it seems and just feels cheap though I know it's not. The stradic does spank the premier in weight and they are equally as smooth but the stradic is giving me line twist fits and winding difficulties both have braid and throw same lures so idk. I got the premier on sale for 200 at gander I wouldn't mind picking up 1 or 2 more honestly. Plus it looks sexy lol

Few Smallmouth From Today
Went out with the kayak for a few hours today landed 5 small mouth and 1 little bitty northern pike. 4 out of the 5 smallmouth came from "trolling" a rebel craw crank well paddling to my spot. The other came off the white booyah iv been getting everything on that poor spinner bait is so beat up lol. Water temp was 54 which was warmer then the air today. Had a bunch of hits but didn't connect with the spinnerbait same with a jika rig and rage craw think they may have been a bit big cause a lot of te smaller smallies are moved up now but I did get two that were in the 3.5-4.0 range. I also seen 2 baby beavers playing which was cool then momma came out and didn't like me so close and gave the water a smack I gave her the finger and kept fishing haha. Also had a lone swan that was new to the area first time seeing one in this spot. Ah and pics here ya go Black spots on this one never seen it on a SMB only LMB
