Got to Red Cross launch this morning about 9 am , tried the patches of pads first and nothing so I started to fish the shore line and Bingo that's where they were today . NNW wind had it's moments but fairly light compared to what we've been getting. First one 2&1/2 pounder second one a little over 3# and I quit weighing after that. Surprise !!!! πŸŽ‰ I caught my first Rock bass on a frog, this fish was really pretty sorry my camera didn't do it justice. Finished off with the " Little Black Frog" tied on at 3 and headed for home. Grass to mowπŸ₯΄πŸ₯΄πŸ₯΄ more like a hay field!!! Won't get out for next 3 days ( work)
Probably have to get retrained to learn how to fish missing that much time. My 3# er trashed my Lews KVD 8:1 to 1 reel it had been making noise when I went to Rip Lips this year , drag is a tight as it goes. This time it dack clicked 3 times in a row so I beached and switched it out with a cheapie 8:3 to 1 from Temu not as smooth but when I Ripped the next sets of lips she held fast. Always something to make things interesting around my days fishing. πŸΈπŸΈπŸΈπŸΈπŸΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²πŸ™

Good catching Andy! Nice looking fish and large at 2Β½ & 3+ lbs. Also, congrats on a new PB for the rock bass, it looks cool too.

Another fine day for you in the books Andy, I caught a bunch of pickerel, 2 smallish bass and a pretty nice crappie swimming paddle tails.

Good day for you too , nothing beats getting out catching. The season is in full swing now and as soon as my pads fully form into definite shapes the big uns will take up residency . Can't wait for that!!! πŸΈπŸΈπŸΈπŸΈπŸΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²πŸ™
