The evening bite.

Headed for VFW Lake yesterday hoping to get in on some bluegill action. While the size was not there that I wanted the numbers were. Had dozens of fish with some at the 7-8 inch mark...had one decent shell cracker. Also caught my first ever green sunfish out of that lake. Been fishing it many years and never caught any. This could be a good thing....if they grow....or it could be bad if they overpopulate the lake. It is a small lake at only 22 acres. All fish caught on a Sow Bug colored Trout Magnet using a 1 gram Daiwa Gekkabijin jig head with a #10 hook. I used the Eradicator 6’ 7” Slow Taper Special and on that rod fish this size are a lot of fun. Even though it was late evening it was hot and humid down in that basin with nary a breeze blowing.....and horse-flies as big as marbles. Had the place to myself for 3 hours. Life is good!

Regards

Great trip!!!!

Great catch, those are the fun size bluegill. Plenty wind coming Saturday to cool you off!

A busy bite is always good especially at those spots where you can enjoy a little piece and quite..... Nice catches.....

Good trip and some nice fish. Sure wish I’d been with you instead of doin the work deal.

Very nice. Good way to end the day.
