Landlocked Atlantic salmon look a lot like browns, the fish pictured look to be salmon to me.

 

The jaw in relation to the eye on salmon and brown trout is similar to spots vs. largemouth. (The jaw on a salmon does not extend beyond the eye)

Ok I was just wondering because they looked alot like brown trout.

 

Caught 8 today after school. River was up and had every fish within 3 feet of the bank. I caught some on a shakey head but it got hung up too much so I fished a 1/8oz texas rig with a trick worm and a baby d-bomb. Fished SLLLOOOWWWW. Any bass is a victory for me from December through mid March!

Nice fish! What river are you fishing?

Coulple of small ones on my first time to try a jig.

"small ones"   Texas

Small Fatties

Baby d-bomb is still catching here in VA. I had to go to a 1/16oz texas rig though, the fish are so slow that 1/8th was not doing it. They don't really fight in these temperatures

I'm afraid to ask just what those water temps are.

So yesterday i was fishing my local lake on my lunchbreak throwing a jig around caught nothing. So i leave and go to the giant in a shopping center across the street and i run into a guy who ive seen fishing at the lake. I tell him i had no luck so he tells me i just caught a 7lber outta the lake im like no way hes like yeah its in my truck! So i go take Look and didnt look like a 7 so i offered my scale...4.3 was the weight! Dang fisherman stories lol heres a pic of it

Not a beast but I'll take it for December 13th.

Caught a few on a spoon and a couple on a jig earlier today. Mostly small and barely legal.

 

Are you fishing that as a jigging spoon? Vertical up and down?

Negative. It's a Lake Fork Flutter spoon, and apparently you're supposed to fish it like a texas rig. That's what I learnt from a couple youtube videos anyway. Never fished a casting spoon before this morning; lots to learn..

Neat, never caught any fish on any type of spoon ever, so definitely lots to learn!

I see you're on my point there.....

I used to throw a Little Cleo back in the day. Slayed the white bass. So many tactics, so little time.

You seem to be off to a pretty good start

2lb 10oz today at 4 o clock!

Plenty of fish today; just wrong species and/or wrong size.

 

Nice fish!

 

Caught my biggest smallie of the day on Christmas Eve after we got called off of the lake due to high winds. Slammed my bladed jig almost as soon as I started my retrieve.

 

Nice fish everyone. Where I am there's a half a foot of snow on the ground and most lakes are frozen over. Only 133 days til fishing season.

nice spot!

 

 

They are a blast to catch
