I shooting Easton axis arrows but they are a bit higher I believe or at least from what what I paid lol.

I'm gonna search for some green fish tomorrow if I can find some non muddy non flooded water.

I didn't get the last pic of the craw in its mouth but I knew when I seen the jika rig earlier that a bama craw was on it

Ya edged him out bout 2 ozs lol I got the pics earlier but he hasn't posted yet.

Nice glad some ones having luck JF stuck a nice one. All my spots look like chocolate milk or are about 3' higher then normal and flowing like crazy I don't dare try and put the kayak in to get to my new found honey hole.

I just heard from a birdie some one else stuck a pig also

My boys are 20months old and 4 years old its go go go all the time lol. The gf thing ain't that bad I see her once a week she likes 1.5 hours away so I make a trip usually on Friday night come home Saturday evening. My ex is no issue at all other then the no child support thing I'm def over that train wreck of a women she's already engaged and movin to PR in 2 months lol.

Yes don't get me wrong I cherrish every moment with my kids and they get all my attention but if your saying your kids never want you to pull your hair out in calling bull **** big time.

Holy crap I'm gonna go insane with another 2-3 weeks before returning to work. Usually when I have a rough day or iv been couped up inside to long I go fishing to regain my sanity as I'm sure most of us do. It seems like lately though I'm pulling my hair out like every day needing to escape. My boys seem to be the main source of me going nuts lol. Don't get me wrong I love my boys very much but this being a single dad thing is got my head spinning I'm up to my eyeballs in poopy diapers lol. I take em out to the playground every chance I get, take them fishing also constantly playing being jumped on like a human jungle gym. Doest help that their mother my ex wife does nothing to help support them or take them on weekends or durring the week ever. Then there is the new GF that's a head ache all in its own also lol. How do y'all do it keep your sanity lol I'm sure it's fishing. Sorry it's a bit of a vent/rant also I'm just going nuts just got done punishing my youngest son for slapping me cuz he wanted a drink rather then asking he screamed at the top of his lungs "baaaabaaa!!" then slapped me.

Mine 1. Basscat 2. Abu Garcia 3. Owner 4. Ragetail 5. Siebert outdoors

I'm running a piranha max 10 right now it's ok I guess it marks fish that arnt there I mostly use it to tell me water depth and structure.

I use the white a 832 line in 20# li have a leader on it now but I was fishing it straight and caught 3 steelhead/rainbow trout which are very line shy and in gin clear water. The only reason I run a leader now is for abrasion resistance in the rocks I tie a 8# flouro leader.

Ill give you a A for effort lol. Nice smallies I got out for a few hours also today to bump you off the large mouth board but only got ate up by mosquitos I suck at fishing muddy flooded water.

New York side

I'm thinkin bout taking the kayak for a trip to Lake Erie when is the best time of year to go?. I'm thinking I may wait till mid may when the weather is a little more stable and not full of rain storms like this April has been since iv heard Erie can get pretty dicey quick. Iv never fished Erie either so what are some good spots to put in iv thought about putting the kayak in at 18 mile and going towards the lake.

How are the micro guides on spinning rods iv been looking for a new spinning rod for my stradic Ci4. Iv been looking at the villain being I'm an Abu guy and seen they have micro guide version as does falcon boocoo rods. What's everyone's thoughts or experiences with micro guide spinning rods

Used to be the only jigs I had I love em but iv switched to Siebert jigs this year I still have a box full of the all terrain jigs and will get used but I'm switching to Siebert.

That's a little guy for a sucker try get twice that size carp even bigger.

There is a lot of April left I plan on getting a bigger one anyways got to break Johns 5-1 mark in the kayak. Tuesday most likely.

Iv been fishing Johnson's creek in WNY

Well you seen what the Xr50 lipless got me......... Ill be in geneseo all weekend for drill maybe ill swing up to Henrietta and pick up some scroungers on the way home at gander. All my spinners are willow blades I need a few with Colorado blades and some chatter baits.

Well if I go where I got all the trout and small mouth that is the deep spot without going onto Lake Ontario it's maybe 500yards from the mouth of the big lake when the water levels were down I was fishing in 8-10 FOW.

How long does it take for high muddy water to clear up and go down? It's been raining all week and everything is flooded now how long before it clears up usually. It's supposed to rain today and tomorrow then sunny and 63 Sunday then sunny 55 Monday and 60 Tuesday with 30% chance of rain. I'm trying to plan when to go out next I'm thinking Tuesday give it a day or two to settle a bit. The water temps were 41* last Tuesday when I went out though idk if it will be much warmer we had freezing rain all yesterday an some of today. All the rain is gonna bring in some fresh steelhead/rainbow trout but that's not what I'm after but they have been hitting everything I toss in the water nothing is safe from them it seems. I'm hoping to get into some more big smallmouth iv gotten 4 so far this year all in the last week smallest was 3# biggest was 4-12 they have been getting bigger with each one caught.

Curious how does this work if I'm the only one to enter a fish?

My son trying to give it the Jimmy Houston smooch lol. I don't have a pic of. Y smallest but my son Noah got this lil guy 2 years ago
