pretty fish
It does look relaxing! What's that in the last pic?
looks like a gator to me
10 foot gator. We ended up with 12, all went back to fight another day.
Nice report C-D and thanks for being a sportsman and releasing those fish.
Right now I have enough to last a while and when they are almost read to pop with Eggs you never know, the next World Record may be in her belly!
Here's a few more pics from today! Ended the day with 12 boated and released, the last one looked like she was ready to pop from the eggs in her. AS I said they were partial to jigs in blue. did get a few on a chartreuse/gray.

Ahh the memories of Shingle Creek, Growing up it was the place to go to get some gills, A cane pole and a tube of crickets and you would fill a cooler! In the early 80's Orange County was dumping way to much treated sewage into the headwaters and the fishing went south, Once that was controlled the fishing got better, Now I go there mainly in the summer, tossing a small Rapala on ultralite gear, catch many schooling bass and BIG Gills! Not to mention the shade is refreshing on a hot summer day. Never have caught a slab up in the creek, but the mouth has given many a good trips for slabs. Best day on Shingle was in about 1980 during one of the every 4 years draw down to low pool, a buddy and I took my motorcycle to the mouth from the lakefront and tossed a white Manns grub and landed over 100 large gills, was a fun and memorable day!Quote:

Just north of that park is an area I fished in the late 80's, it cannot be reached from the lake but I found an area where I could drop my small boat in, would get 3 to 8 Bass in the 5 to 8 pound range every time, Can't reach my launch now days, but you can use a canoe or Kayak and put in at that little park.Even caught a 5 inch Gill on a 10 inch worm.
Always good to see the RnD!
