...and a few bass but I don't take the bass so they are not represented here today. ;)
Grabbed Wifey, a tube of crickets and my Pfleuger trigger and had a fantastic time on the lake today. Took my little Pelican 10 footer and some of these bullies would actually turn the boat a little...talk about mean little guys.
That's a fine mess of fish right there! I know it was fun w/that ultra-lite!:)
That will make a couple fine meals Moon Shine. That pond sure looks peacfull.
Just curious, are those two white upright pipes for some sort off game?
Just can't beat gills on light tackle. :DMike
The post are for 50 yard dash, it they can make it thereQuote:

Yes, gents...at least a few of them were as good eatin' last night as they were catchin'. I believe some of these fish were on steroids or something...I can't remember gills ever giving "pullage" (to borrow a phrase from CrappiePappie) like they did.
Those upright poles are:
- Slingshot uprights used to launch coyotes and small critters to the awaiting channel cats on the lower end of the lake. Catfish so big around here, nobody wants to venture to that end of the lake and feed them so I wrap long strips of sliced bulldozer inner tubes around those posts and fling 'em suppper several times a week.
- I'm constructing a "reverse bungie jumping" water ride in which one will sit in a cage which in turn will be mechanically drawn down beneath the surface of the lake and at the push of a button, the cage with occupants will be shot corkscrew fashion up and out of the water, whirling skyward.
- Markers for some of the crappie condos I built a couple years ago. At 53 and graying rapidly, I figure I would be getting more and more forgetful so I wanted to make sure I marked them well.
- A pair of old utility poles that were there before the lake was built.
Choose one of the above. :cool: First correct answer wins a pair of vintage Henways.
I'm gonna take a wild guess and say the last one, "utility poles"
LL:)
You win, Double L.
That is a nice mess if fish ya got there. good going.
roll tide
duck hunter, what kind of boat blind is that in your signature picture?
That's a nice mess of fish. I love pan fishing better than I do anything.Quote:
