Caught 4 gills today. 7.5"-8.5". Made a poor cast and got slammed by a good fish. Broke me off and swamoff with my Rocket bobber. 200 yards up and down the shore. Just could not catch up with it. Snagged the line once and felt the fight again, but slid off. Ended up over my boots in some muskrat runs. Good times.

Sounds like a fun trip. Thanks for sharing
Sounds like fun!
First fish is always fun, eh? Caught them on my hand tie jigs with Slabsauce, Slabinator scent sticks, and homegrown redworms.
My kind of day .
Love hooking those big ones on ultralight even if they manage to get away.
Nice mess
nice fish
That’s a good amount of fish, especially if it’s been a while. Sorry you didn't get to see what the mystery fish was. I was able to identify but lost two big largemouth a few weeks back. Never had any kind of control of either of them. I could’ve put a softball in the second ones mouth. Glad you got out and found a few, it’s always good for a smile.
Thanks for the ride along! A nice catch came home!
Thinking about grabbing my waders and a long handled net today:biggrin
Believe a net or/and wader’s would help out or get you in trouble.
I like the Rocket bobber. Lost another one that was not attached to a fish, but found one from last year washed up on shore. Might give me an opportunity to retrieve at least one of them.
KABOOM
Bluegills and bacon for a breakfast snack this morning:biggrin
Now you really know how to hurt a guy! Good snack.
I feel the same way when I see those great fish you post. It was a tasty snack, especially when our usual breakfast is a hard boiled egg.
Sounds like a great trip. Thank you for the ride along...
