Thread: 4-16-25 Weekly Meetup

My fishing buddy and I met at the first boat ramp around noon and fish until just before five on a beautiful sunny low 70’s day .
The lake level had dropped almost four feet since last week .
I ended up catching 27 total , a mixed bag , spotted bass , green Sunfish, bluegills , shellcracker, and a single crappie just before we left .
I did catch three gills on my micro jig spinner in a chartreuse/orange , but most were caught on micro jigs , about half on my rabbit fur tail jigs and half on a junebug colored silicone leg jig I took off my jig spinner . I’ll be tying some more of these .
They are similar to some jigs Skeetbum sent me , thanks Tim ! Similar pattern but smaller .
And they cast great on my 5’2” SeaSir Stream UL with 2# Ande Tournament line .
My buddy said he caught eleven but I think he lost count . I think he caught more than that, including a couple nice UL bass .
Great times with a great friend.

You will, Skeet. Get settled in and start checking out some new water. Always something to look forward to.
