Changed it up a bit

Decided to hit the old honey Hole today, Was at the ramp at 530, could not put in till almost 630 thanks to a bass tournament. Got in the water just before daybreak and headed to dad's favorite fishing hole. Sunrise was awesome, then fog rolled in for about 30 min.

Got all 10 poles in the water and it started, Over the next hour I had 18 landed, then POOF, they were gone, Headed out in the lake and picked up another 7 before the wind sent me packing.

Long lining, Jig colors they were hitting was Greens, Orange, Blues, and Cotton Candy. Biggest was right at 12", the smallest was about 6 inches.Attachment 254473

The big one's got to start out from little guys, always a good sign for the fishery & the next "GEN" of fisherman...

Sure enough a pretty sunrise. Funny how it is that no matter how good a camera you have, you can't capture the moment, the comfortable feeling that makes you say "Wow, would you look at that!" The sunsets are nice but just don't do it for me like the beginning of another day doing what I truly love to do.

Small fish or large, they all make a good trip. Glad you got a chance to go. Those flurry bites really get the heart going.

Yea I love the flurry bite. Last year my son and I got into them and we had 12 poles out and 10 had fish on them at once. Pure chaotic bliss.

If you are ever going to be in Central Florida to fish, just shoot me a message and I will see if i can put you on some Florida slabs.

CD will be in central FL in march, hope you can give my buddy who lives in Villages and I some tips on where to go. he has been there for 3 winters but never got into any specs to speak of. when I come see him I usually catch quite a few on the canals between Harris chain.

When it gets closer shoot me a message and I will pass along where I am getting into them. That time of year I normally fish Canoe Creek or St Cloud Canal with jaunts out on Lake Toho around markers 26, 27 29 and 31. Depends on the wind for me as I long line with the wind always, That is what dad taught me many years ago and if it ain't broke, dont fix it. But as I said, let me know when it gets a little closer, be more than happy to share information.
