Strange eyes on that fish

Thats because i was specificly trying to catch some fish for a fish fry tommorow(my buddy caught about 2 doz. 8-10 in' bream too) and when i got back to the house I decided to post some pics. They were dead for a little while, thats why their eyes look like that. But normaly I just bass fish for fun, not for food, but tommorow is a special exception!

Lol so you put the frog back into the dead bass's mouth?

Haha, I thought might as well "prove the frog did it". Kind of funny/wierd thing to do Lol

The week or so in review....

 

 

My buddy Brad with Mr. Waldo

 

In the midst of this nice weather streak as of late,  it was 45 degrees this particular afternoon we were out...

 

Brad with a nice Sammy!!

Rocky Balboa made an appearance..caught on a chatterbait.....those things are CRAZY!!!.....LOL

 

 

 

Walleye Chunks ready for the deep fryer...MMmmmmmmm

Droooooooool!

Caught a couple "swimbait dinks" on the hardgill this evening. 

Droooooooool!

I second the drooling. Walleye is the best freshwater fish you will ever eat.

My best for last week.

What spinning rod were you using?

That's a St. Croix Avid 6'3" MXF spinning rod paired up with a Quantum Smoke SL25 with 8# flourocarbon.....I LOVE that rod......

This was the only Hawg I caught this past Saturday.... I know sad. Caught on a Siebert's Sunfish swim jig with a green pumpkin Rage Tail Menace. Did have a few short strikes, and hooked a Pickeral luckily that came off by it self at the bank.

Some footballs from a couple weeks ago, all weighed on a good scale.

 

14.25'' 2.24 lbs

 

Would have been barely a keeper at 14'' but weighed that much...

 

3.00lbs

 

4.3lbs

 

 

Fat fish.

I am stuck at 18.5"....it's like one after another.

A few from the last week or so.

 

17.5''

17.5''

A few smallies showed up.

I even got a handful of browns saturday morning. 

 

 

 

 

Just cuaght this carp 30mins ago:

The first one was on a guided trip on Fork caught on a 10XD.

The other ones are my first jig fish using a Sieberts/Vile Craw throwing around boat docks.

And yes I usually have that many rods on the deck of the bot because I don't know what I'm doing lol.

Shameful amount of non resourcefulness... Have i ever shared my fishing arsenal... Which includes: one combo, a backback of baits, a scale, and yet i catch 8# bass, and have better days than most on this fourum! Why would you spend hundreds of dollars for all these combos, when you can use one for everything(and never break damage or mess up) and take 1 minute to tie on a bait? 

 not sure if serious

You sir, just don't get it! One can never have too many rods, reels and baits!!

Have you ever fished a rod built and outfitted specifically for a certain technique? If you had then your comment would not exist.

 

It makes all the difference for the angler in terms of efficiency and fluidity. Especially in tournaments. Would you rather have to bite off your bait and tie a new one on each time you wanted to change? Maybe, but in a tournament that 30-200 seconds could be time spent fishing because you already have a rod tied with that bait and special reel.

Youthful humor.
