Look on the bright side, sand is softer than a rock. All our sand washed away a couple million years ago

The best method is to never decorate

Ravens goal line offense…… woof

Bengals without burrow? Yikes

My buddy threw a popper by a laydown and a fish made a massive splash trying to grab it but missed completely. He threw back in and got it the next cast with the same popper! “Follow up” bait can be the same one twice. 19” SMB

@Team9nine, so which one is it? 😂 I don’t imagine we could have anything without roots because the current is strong all day and night

Nice fish!!!!

While we are at it…….. anybody know this one ?

Got a lot better on Friday! Typically get bigger better smallies right up until new years, seems like it’s just getting started

Cubs are in!!!!

Ran into a long one this evening , thought I had a drum but it launched itself airborne. Turned out to be a very nice smallmouth. I should have gotten a better measurement but I think it was pushing 21”+, definitely over 20”. I got it with a smaller watermelon fluke on a jighead. First photo courtesy of @galyonj, he and his wife also slayed SMB the whole time, and some mooneye.

@gim They are much different than any other fish, in a bad way. Even a deep fried drum in not good

I draw the line there !!!

That’s what I was about to say

Alternatives? We don’t need no stinkin alternatives

You guessed correctly

@Alex from GA, they make waders with zippers, but I think they cost a fortune

An honest man! Truly none of us ever can, but we like to anyhow

All of the above

I have. I got my hook stuck on fishing line, pulled in the line I caught and there was a dead hellbender on the end.

Nice work! Do you think the water still being warmish at 70 is why you are just now getting into the smallies? I know you’ve gotten them earlier in past years. Also, I’m with you on soft plastic durability. That’s why all my worms are plastisol, I’m not paying extra for one they cut in half and it melts in the sun.

I read the topic heading and before clicking and reading, my smarty pants answer was “by eating”

@A-Jay, yes! At long last !!!
