Just a couple from fishing at the small lake by our house.
She loves her ugly stick

One of my better blue gills of the year

14" Large Mouth caught off a dry fly.. I was picking off the blue gills in their nests and he came flying over and grabbed it.

14" Bullhead. This is my smaller catfish of the year in this place.

Went to a friends house to fish in a private pond i got three leeches and four bass the largest was a 16 incher. they were all caught on flies.
I used one of my own creations, a clouser pattern. I would strip in line pretty fast and when it stopped i knew a bass was on the line i only fished for 45 minutes so it was pretty fun had on bass miss and had another small one shake the hook after its third jump!
After stripping in line i felt a quick jerk, i set the hook and felt the surge of power at the rod i let line out and it pulled more line out it dived but then was done. It was sixteen inches.

i caught my first croaker...looks like they are coming back up the delaware.


i hit up a local river with senkos for the first time. Senkos are 10x more fun to fish with than bait. I ended up getting two smallies real quick before i had to leave. Fun time catching my first fish on a senko.

Yes senko/dingers work very good, specially with the water staying above 75!

A crocker in the Delaware, wow! I dint think they make it this far north. When I stayed in VA they came dime and dozen(big ones too)!

Good post!!

and CF have you been using senkos or any other rubbers lately? I am just getting into using stuff like this and i notice that you use all your cranks and buzz baits but i didnt know if you used rubbers?

Yes wire baits(buzzy,spinny,and chatter) are my # 1!!

But as much as I would like the fish to think the same it isnt realistic. As a bass fisherman you learn they have moods and its alot of things that effect it. Rubber will work all year around but at certain times it will not be the king of the day. Now in the summer time when water temps stay above 75 the rubber becomes number one but in the morning the fish are active so I throw the wire baits HEAVY. Once the sun is beaming down its worm time.

I say all that to say rubber is definitly something you should use. I see a hang over,laydown, or a brush pile in the middle of the day I might throw the buzzy once or twice then follow up with dinger or my favorite MONSTER catcher the 1/4 oz bullet weight and a 10" worm(The big girls like it) .

Your average angler mainly use senkos/dingers and in the summer time it works but when the fish are active wire baits win everytime. One thing about the worm tho it goes deeper and slower and that tends to produce bigger fish landed.

I like but worm but its too slow for me, give me wire baits all day!!!
