I got my bottle of chartreuse n dipped a bush hog. Found the jig heads but haven't gotten out yet.
If you didn't hear 3wks ago today a guy hit us head on. Totaled my truck n sent Bug n I to hospital.
I'm still dealing with that.
It will be awhile before I get out.
Getting older tends to slow us brother.
👍🤣

Dang Griz.
Sorry to learn of your accident. Glad you survived.
It’s harder to heal as we age I’m still suffering from the residuals of stage 4 throat cancer 6 years ago.
I’m putting you and yours on my prayer list for a full recovery.

Nice catching Rich! I'm staying far away from the water this weekend. Thanks for sharing. 
Fred. It’s not bad early, as most of the tourist drink late into the night and don’t rise early. I get out at daybreak and quit by ten.

Oh brother you have some big fish down there.
Do I see a dab of chartreuse on the tail.
I know what you mean about the weekend craziness.
I haven't the water on a weekend since I retired.
Good hearing from you again👍
How are you doing now?
Zoom products are getting hard to find around here.

Griz. The chartreuse dipped tail has been a main stay of mine for years. I use it in all my green pumpkin plastic and on some trailers in my jigs. (Small blue hill all have chartreuse tails!). I was somewhat surprised when I officiated in the MLF these past four years in the amount of pros that use the dye as well. Both chartreuse and orange.
I’m doing well as can be for the old fart that I am. Don’t have the long term stamina anymore, but I get out probably for to five days a week for half a day.
Nit having an issue here finding zoom products. On line buying may be the answer for you. Tackle warehouse or BOATWRX or bith good sources.

So I must’ve caught 20 non-keeper fish today on a DT 10 Rapala DT 10 crank bait in shad. However, the bigger fish were still in the brush piles at about 12 to 20 feet. The sweet one weighed about 4.15 pounds and hit on a midsize brush hog in green pumpkin magic. Once 10 o’clock hits all the idiots down for the Labor Day weekend came out and the bite was no more. Jet skis galore.

Mcalla. Thanks for the offer, but I think we are going to do well with what we are bringing. I have 30 more fillets this week and several of the guys I conversed with are doing well too.
Thanks again, your generosity is much appreciated.

Can’t say I blame you Griz. We don’t eat bass in my house; mainly walleye and crappie with an occasional catfish.

Nice one Rich! That's the way it goes, you only catch small ones when you're looking for Hawgs. LOL.
More truth to that than what you know. I’m going through a lot of largemouth black bass to get a few kentuckies. HA.

Sounds like a tall order, Eyecrosser! Hope there are other parishoners he also asked to increase the supply chain!
Several other parishioners are engaged in supplying fish. It takes a TEAM to feed all those attending the fish fry.

So the pastor tells me the church is having a fish fry, and since I am a known fisherman, he asked me to help supply some fish filets. The only bass that I would ever put a filet knife to are Kentucky‘s or spotted bass. It’s not easy to catch small fish when you’re not used to it. I did catch a limit of kentuckies three days in a row, but I let go more large mouth than I caught Kentucky‘s.
Today was no different. I hook this 3.8 pounder of a secondary point in the half way back in a cove on a zoom mag trick trick worm (grn pumpkin magic) with a 5/16 oz shaky head. Put him right back in the lake.

8/20/23 It was really cool this morning. It was 60 degree when I started fishing. I caught two pickerel on the first two cast with the 7.5" purple worm. Also caught a few small bass. Went to a different area for crappie. Didn't catch many, but I did catch some good ones.
Good deal. Thanks for sharing.

Lotsa top water baits thrown but had to go back to throwing crank to baits get this fish the other evening.
Anyone else having any luck.

Nice catch Rich! Glad it worked for you. I've had excellent results with them in some places, but in others my old fav Watermelon /Red flake still rules. I'm really not sure why, but as long as one of them works, I'm happy. Thanks for sharing buddy.
When you catch 20 fish on offer er baits, and the only one keeper on that single bait, it’s a great bait. Thanks again for sharing.
