I took the 5wt out and caught a couple of small bass on a home made fly. Of course, I proceeded to lose it.

Then I tied on a clouser and caught this crappie.

Black crappie?

That'll do!

pretty fish

Went out for a short stogie and fished with a chatterbait. Caught 2 that were @12".

Then switched to a swim jig. Got snagged but it seemed to be pliable...like a log. Then finally brought this guy in. Huge head!

Luckily, I had him by the tail and was able to get free before he bit my hand off!

Need to clean my glasses

Those things are good eating but I do not like being anywhere close to them

I should have taken more pics today. A lot of fun on the 4wt!

I caught many LMB, green sunfish, blue gill, long ear blue gill and then this nice red ear!

Sounds like a blast!

Caught on a home made fly!

A little after 4p. Enjoyed a short stogie (Oliva V Melanio)

Really dark and good size. Nice job!

Don't want to shoot myself in the foot, but why do you even need a boat?

I like the buoyancy under me when in the boat. Easier on the knees than bank fishing. Plus, I can get away from people.

Another short stogie session.

Caught 2 like this one...

...on my L shad rod.

Then I saw some dimpling in the water and I threw at it. Got bit and line started peeling. I saw the fish and started to worry that I was over matched. Luckily, she was tired from giving birth a few days back. The dimpling was a huge bass fry bait ball.

This was my reward.

Mama was not happy! Almost straightened out the hook on my jig that was missing lots of hair!

Caught 2-3 more dinks on a 3" wacky.

Nice outing...time to rest.

I love that rod. A friend gave me a heads up that they (Mud Hole) were selling 7 of these that were made in a class . I was lucky to get it.

Mudhole contracts out to the biggies and make a quality product

First place I start at when I do a build

Nice little session, Ernie! That is quite a nice LM. You are starting to fill Curly's shoes.

Let's not forget that in his outings, he usually posted 2-3-4-5 of these bigger fish...
