I have both and I usually grab the scum frog because nothing frustrates me more then seeing them blow up on my frog and not hooking it iv got 11 spros and 6 scum frogs iv never caught anything on the spros and the skirts rotted off most of em. Scum frog may get torn up easy but for the price of one spro I can buy 3 scum frogs.

I bought this spinner of some one here last summer I can't remember who but I want more of them I love this thing and not cuz of the pig I got on it today. It looks like its a custom home made spinner the hook free swings in a sense and the blades and head look air brushed. The head is also a bullet weight not a poured traditional head. Here's a pic of it one in my hand one in the smallmouth I got on it today. You can see how the hook free swings behind the bullet weight notice the angle the spinner then the hook in the fish.

Well it was beautiful out today all morning a d afternoon till about 30 seconds before I put the kayak in the water then it started raining and hasn't stopped. Still didn't stop me I loaded it up and pushed off to head to my new honey hole. I found this spot Sunday while exploring on my way to a spot iv wanted to fish for years but never could. Sunday I was "trolling" and hooked I to a smallie that came off so I decided to stay there and I got all the fish in my previous post in that spot an today's. this spot is maybe 400 yds from the mouth of Lake Ontario in Johnson's creek. It goes from 4fow with rocky bottom to 10fow with a muddy bottom for about 20yards then goes back up to 4fow for a stretch. In that little hole there is a submerged tree on one side and a stump on the other with a grill hanging in a tree haha my marker of where I anchor and start to fish line up with the grill on one side and a funky tree on the other red neck GPS. So that's the spot now on to today's catches. Only got 3 fish today all good sized. First was a small mouth a 4-12 swimming football that smacked a spinner. Then was the rainbow that hit a Xr50 lipless crank the trout ended up dieing I ripped a gill getting the hooks out so I tied it to a length of para cord and let it bleed out an it is on my buddy's smoker now. Then I got a nice thick northern pike on the same Xr50. By the time I was done fishing I looked like I had fell in the water I was drenched only dry spot was my chest where my PFD was. Had a few more hits but missed them as my hands were pretty prunny and numb I lost some feeling and reaction time. On with pics

That's what I thought I'm still calling Abu who knows maybe they will send a rod haha or at least a matching tip iv put the Walmart tips on rods iv snapped the tip off and they never seem to fit right.

I know Abu will take care of it how do I get the old guide off?

I broke my new veritas!!! Not bad the tip line guide got all mangled. I got snagged and was trying to get in stuck then my line broke and I noticed the tip is all mangled. Gonna call Abu tomorrow see if I can't get it replaced.

Challenge accepted only a few ozs off today ad would have beat it

Another "monster" as JF put it thanks for that kayak by the way lol. 4lbs 12oz on a spinner bait same spot as the first one right down to the same stump.

My good spots I constantly get asked " are there really fish in there?" One spot iv named wal Mary pond is a old quarry right infront of Walmart in Albion no one ever fishes it but its loaded with bass iv caught a few 5s and a bunch of 3 and 4s out of there. The other spot is behind the post office in lyndonville it's about 1' deep for 99% the water you see and all along the school. How ever there is a channel that is maybe 4' wide and 4' deep that snakes threw the big flat and leads you into the woods where it is 12' and loaded with brush and logs along the banks. I don't think iv ever pulled a dink out of that spot even the crappie are huge and iv caught bullhead on swimbaits back there and that spot is right in the center of town I see maybe 3 or 4 other people fish it occasionally.

I love that kayak I might tak it out again tonight to the spot I got the trout and smallies yesterday

What is this work you speak off lol I'm off work till weather is nicer Iv been a stay at home daddy the last few months but should be returning to work in a week or two.

Super model trout lol

Got these ones with my best friend Clay haven't really hung out with him in years because my ex wife hated him though he was my best man. Lately we've been fishing like old times and got 4 pike with him if you look in the one pic he's in the tree across the creek getting a vibrax spinner back lol Look next to the pike lol

Had an awesome day on the water today. Absolute blast most fun iv had in a long time. Got 3 smallmouth a 3# 3.3# and a 3.6#. Also got 6 trout all good sized one even was a PB but couldent get a pic other then it in the water but it was longer then the kayak was wide soon as I got it off the hook I tried to grab it and plop back in the drink. Also got 6 northern pike some good sized ones no giants but for a small river they were good sized pike. Water temps were 41* a bit cold all but 2 pike came on a white boohya spinner bait even the trout and they absolutely clobbered it almost ripped the rod out of my hands.

Caught in Johnson's creek in Kuckville, NY on a white boohya spinner bait. 3lbs 6oz

Yeah them winds are killing me I upgraded to a 3.6 smallmouth ill get pictures up tonight or tomorrow morning. I'm headed to a stone quarry now should get some LM.

Exactly why I'm going today my ex wife is finally for the first time in almost 3 months taking our boys for a weekend and not just a few hours so I spent yesterday with my gf went to the bars with some friends and have been out on the water since 8am. I'm on my way home right now to change because I had to get in the water.........didn't fall in just got stuck lol

Yeah the bite has died off now morning seemed like the time to be there I was seeing fish like crazy even when the fish finder went off I could look down and see fish going by for once it was actually marking fish. Towards the end it wasn't marking anything and I bought 2 pike quick so I left

Water temps are 41* I'm at 4 trout, 3 smallmouth, 1 northern pike all on a boohyah white spinner bait. Also posted from the water lol had to take a break got thirsty lol

I just got a smallie 3lbs 3 ozs pics later I'm still on the water

Well it's 1003 iv caught two smallies one 3.3 the other 3 even an two gorgeous trout like super model trout lol.

Yeah I'm taking my sweet time it's 8am already 53* out though I'm bout 15 minutes from where I'm gonna put the kayak in. I'm starting about half a mile upstream from Lake Ontario in a tributary going down to the mouth never fished it before its more of a exploration at this point. Have a few other spots I'm gonna hit later where I heard some one caught a smallmouth same type of spot it's a river where it meets the lake it's just a smaller lake loaded with smallies and large mouth for that matter. 20mph winds with gusts to 45 today so I'm staying in some protected areas from the winds.

I was wondering about this last night a I was planning my all day fishing trip for today. When going out chasing them early bass in the spring where the water temps are in the 40s what is the best time to go. It almost seems logical that the morning might not be as productive and waiting for warmer mid day temps might be better. What's the thoughts on this?

That would look good on my 2nd gen Revo SX hmmmmmm got my wheels turning
