As you know the St. Judes Smallie auction is now underway!
I just received a letter that Slabsrus (you've seen his crappie drawings
on this site) will draw a Smallie to frame and include in this auction!!!!!!
He will pay for shipping to the winner as well. Pretty darn nice of him
to do this for St. Judes!!!! The value of this print alone is reason to bid!
Check it out at CDC Swapmeet.
Very cool to have a smallie drawing added in and very nice gesture...
Well guys, got out today for about a half hour on break. Tied on the UG "meat whistle" and did get one decent size fish for my section of the river. :)

What was the size of that beastie?

Fished again today....
Tied on AZ's creature looking bait - man, does that thing handle nice! What is that head style, really like it and may have to find me some. Pretty heavy head to cast good and the xtra legs slow the fall once in the water. :cool: The rockbass seemed to like it as well.....

2 jigs down, hope to get out again tomorrow. :)
Never have carried a tape measure with me out wading, need to start. Here's my best guess - i measured the bottom section of my pinkie, then copied it across the length of the fish in the pic. Came out between 13.5" and 14" :) Not quite CK3's 7lber, but sure beats the heck out of playing solitare and eating lunch in front of my computer at work. :DQuote:

Lunch in front of the 'puter.....
Don't I know it....if I had a stream as pretty as yours - I don't know if I'd ever get back to work - 'specially if the fish were biting.
I passed your pic to a couple of guys I work with - had given each of them a pair of my swap jigs....they were most interested in it.....alas - smallie season is still over a month away yet.....
Here is a pic of a smallie I took last summer - 15.75" - by a bridge column on a small stream in N Iowa....the jig in the fishes mouth is the pattern I used for my other swap jig - but was a 1/32 oz head.....
Keep them pics a coming....

UG - Nice Fish!! Bet that was fun. :) Smallie season over a month away.... ? Does your state have regs. on them? There are some specific ones for this river... only 1 fish limit and must be over 15" till June i think and no trebles as well.
Had my first casualty today... :( Soswine, your minnow style jig went down with glory. Hooked into a catfish (i think, only got a glimpse of a dark shadow) and then it went straight under a rock ledge. Plink went my 4lb. test. I did get one rockbass before the jig passed over to the other side... moment of silence please...

There goes my plan for a pic of a smallie with each jig... oh well, it did get me a fish.
Nothing to do with the swap, but also took a couple other pics today. I'm not fishing the stream, way too shallow, just use it to get to and from my car to the river.
