Thursday, May 19

went fishing in my back yard

                                                  This bluegill was a real tugger. He fell to a weird
                                                   beadhead I tied up. But they bite anything most
                                                   of the time. :)
                                              Threw on the olive woolly bugger and bam. This
                                               largemouth was probably about four pounds. Pretty
                                               average for my backyard lake...I'm still trying to get
                                               one of the ten pounders... :) ahh, one of these days.
                                           And then the rain came, and came and came for about
                                           an hour and a half...
                                           ...and then it stopped and went fishing again at a lake
                                           down the street and picked up this little slabolita...:)
                                            They were killin' the green-bodied elk hair caddis...
                                           Good day yesterday, I was fishing morning, afternoon and
                                            night.

    Nice fish! I've got to try the ponds in my backyard. Ten years and I've never even look at them.

    yea, Cofisher, i lived here a year before i even went fishing in the lake, and literally it's like fifty feet away :). I'm so happy now because i'm not wasting all that gas traveling twenty miles to my very favorite fishing holes. I have three large lakes within a mile of my place, and a couple of miles away is the ocean and striper heaven (I hear from my friends). i haven't tried the salt water yet...one of these days...

    Everyone, I think ole Clif there has done lost it. First the new, ghetto website and now saying that the fish he's chasing will " bite anything. " Clearly these fish just haven't been properly trained to only bite Orange Stingers!

    ( I think I just heard my sales or Stingers drop like a rock. Or like it's hot. ;) ) LOL
