Been off the pond for a bit - LP 08 15 18

Hard to get out between the heat and my arm. Got referred to a surgeon yesterday for my arm. Will be off the lake for a bout 2 months - of course it has to be during prime time for the BGs.
Did some deep water trolling for one fish...

Went 17 to 9 FOW and found pre spawnners. Aji rod and 2lb test. Bigger fish wanted the glo green Auto. Olive and regular green caught smaller fish??????? Autos were tyed on a 1/32nd roundhead, #6 lil Nasty BLN hook.

WOW.Those are some hogs.
Hope you heal quickly so you can get back out there.

Nice gills as usual. The variations in color this time of year is interesting. I am going to try some fall gill fishing this year, hope you recover quickly.

Nice fish Sonny. Shoot me a PM or call whenever you want to co-miserate about our recoveries. It will be a lot better when it's all in the rear view. Chin up Brother.

Man are they big gills and man are they pretty as well ....congrats

Great photos, beautiful fish

Thnx for the comments and well wishes guys.

I think these some of these fish are showing heat stress colors - water temp is 82*F

Great report and pics! Hoping for fast recovery!

Nice fish, last one looks like a hybrid. When I had shoulder surgery I tried using the good arm and switched sides on the reels. Really awkward but caught fish. Get it done now and you can still get to the late fall fish. Hope you have a speedy recovery.

I always find myself staring at your pics, those fish are spectacular, Sonny!

Good luck on your surgery and recovery!! You look like a tough guy, you'll be fine!

thnx again for the kind words

Should have done it last month Jim.
