I'm certain a grand time was had by all. Congrats to you and the gang for putting smack down on those feisty critters one more time.

Made our annual trip to fish the Everglades. Oscars were there by the hundreds but we changed tactics the last day and caught some bass and bream also.
Brandon (SNAP Hunter) made his first trip down while we were here. Think he is hooked now as well. I left him a box of crickets and he was going to fish the lake Saturday instead of the Glades. I am worn out from a week of fishing in the hot Florida sun followed by a 600 mile drive home Saturday, but already looking forward to next year.
This was a really nice Bluegill and a larger than average Myan Cychlid. I posted this from my new phone and i haven't figured out the picture orientation yet.

Boat did fine on maiden voyage. Got a couple of tweeks to make but well pleased.
The fastest way to catch them is with crickets under a cork, but they slam a spinner bait so hard it jars your teeth, so we did some of that too. We went through 6 boxes of crickets, that's 6000 total, but you loose some that die off, still a lot of crickets. Some spots you can't get a bait in the water without a small bream hitting it. Only thing you can do is move unless you want to feed bream nonstop. The Rooster Tail spinners accounted for some of the larger bream and bass. However the largest one in the picture hit a cricket.
