After a few days of rain and really serious winds finally got out for some local fishing. Caught 6 rockets, a couple of crappies and a few bass throwing under spins with 3.5” Keitechs, some just swimming paddle tails and a few on ZMan turds 💩. Nothing special in the size category but felt good to be out and about. Still pretty windy so it was kinda difficult to keep in touch with your baits. Added a photo of the pollen that collected on the SE end of the water. My eyes are a bit itchy.

Nice catching Brad. Glad to see the variety is expanding. I'm going to Beseck for a shakedown run tomorrow, finally. Hopefully I can find some to play. Thanks for the pictures buddy. 👍🏻

It does look like a fun day Bk. Nice mix of species, good catching. Thanks for the sharing.

Nice going Brad. Your water looks a lot better than the stream I hit this morning. Rains last night really muddied it up but while I was there no sense turning around. Skunked in the aspect of just one bite but found 50 cents on a picnic bench and a rod and reel laying on the bank. Not a name brand but free is good.

Thanks Fred, hope all goes well on the shakedown cruise and the fish cooperate.

Thanks DV, it was a pretty nice day weather wise and just good to be wetting a line.

Thanks plumb, creeks around here were also running a bit like heavily creamed coffee.

Some days it seems like I live in the wrong area for fishing at this time of year. It's always good to see you having success. My wife and I did get out for some bank fishing yesterday with each of us getting 3 small fish (1 bass and 2 bluegills).

The fishing has just recently picked up a bit with the warmer temps. OB.

Way to go Brad, nice looking bunch of fish. I don't mind the cold or temperature but that doggone wind really can make for a difficult day. Good selection of different baits too. Someday maybe I'll try different baits???? No wait I probably won't 🐸. Might keep a wacky worm in the yac just to say I have different baits, most likely won't ever get tied on. Have a great week. We got wind and rain heading our way again 🐸🐸🐸🐸🐸🇺🇲🇺🇲🙏

Good job keeping the rod bent. At least you finally found some crappie. Things are looking up.
