Fished through the weekend despite the terrible weather. Made it to Merrymeeting Lake, Winni, and Half Moon Lake. Pulled 5 or so smallies out of Merrymeeting off beds with the biggest one pictured below. Had some tough luck in the rain on Winni, caught 2 largemouth and a couple of monster pickeral in about three hours of fishing. The biggest was largemouth was right around 3.5 pounds. Half Moon was tough because there a ton of pickeral but I managed to pull 7 bass out of there but nothing bigger than 2.5 pounds. Going Striper fishing tomorrow for the first time this year. I'm pumped on that!

Whats up guys just joined the forums. I've been fishing for years but kind of got back into it these last few years. I've been pretty busy this year with work and school but my senior year is finally winding down so I've been able to get out these past few weekends. Went to Turtle Pond and Turkey Pond three weeks ago and got shutout besides a ton of pickerel. Temps were still pretty low at that point and the wind was brutal so we didn't stay for too long. This past weekend I got out on Merrymeeting Lake and caught quite a few. Then on Monday I went out from shore on a small pond in my town that I had never fished before and absolutely hammered them! 18 total, all smallmouths besides a couple sunfish that managed to hit my topwater lures. Anyways here are some pics of some of my catches so far. Nothing too big yet but hopefully with the temps rising everyday I'll find some lunkers soon enough.
