sight fished

This fish was 19" caught some others in my pal's boat that went about 26". Im on the first wave just a matter of time till the biggins move in.

25mph+ sustained winds in a kayak? Never again. But I did catch some fish. Felt like I was in the ocean!

The hybrids in lake anna are almost to the legal keeping length. Also caught 5 catfish

While having a cruddy go of it in finding Smallmouth in Erie, we happened into a pod of Walleye.  To lessen the sting of sucky bass fishing that day, dinner that night was certainly tasty...

First time in the kayak. Wish it wouldn't have gotten wrapped up so I could have got the full experience.

 

A hair under 13", this fish was out in the middle of nowhere over 60FOW 

One of my sons caught a nice black crappie 

I had quite the multispecies day Friday. Largemouth, smallmouth, bluegill, warmouth, white bass, walleye, channel cat, and drum, almost all on a Ned Rig. This channel cat was the largest fish of the day and gave quite the fight.

 

This is the biggest carp I have ever caught i think; 37". Big heavy fish who knows what the weight was. Almost spooled me what a run out to the middle of the river whew!   

Got a whole bunch of wee dinks yesterday.. still fun though.. 

I managed to catch this small snakehead n a short evening session. I'm not sure how but I managed to catch it on bread. 

 

9lbs channel cat, caught it with my ultralight setup. He was a scrappy guy, gave me a run for my money. 

I managed to nab this spotted tilapia the other day. Caught it on my ultra light setup. It was a little bigger than my hand. 

Caught this 28 inch 12 pound carp in the patuxent river on a bread ball. Luckily my brother was there he got in the river to net it! What a fight it put up!

Haven't seen this done in a while, now twice in the last 2 trips.

 

My brother caught this pickerel on lake anna yesterday 

Had some luck today. 29". cool pic i think.

Caught the friggin things that were stripping all my carp rigs. And ate them! Pulled alot of meat off these 11 fish. Still have some in the frig.

They are great fried and they don't have any parasites at all like smallies and bluegill from rivers
