No judgement over how big this here minner made me smile. I caught it after the visit from Capt Lash in the last post so I needed a win of any flavor!

Aw for the love of Samuel L. Jackson….roll casted lipless meets pondside palm frond. Guess I’ll fish spinning gear from that spot next time.

If you know you know😁#softplasticsociety I need a name for this rig. It might already have a name but I don’t care I’m giving it another one!

Got 2nd today and took big fish in a local club on keowee

Nothing like spending time on the farm and catching slabs out the small pond!

Managed to at least get a couple today on Lanier…. High pressure with the beautiful day

Good weather, no wind and some successful icefishing with my cousin. I'll call that a win!

There’s one area of a lake I frequent where I learned to not throw baits that make contact with the bottom. I didn’t know what was there, but through trial and error I knew I’d get hung or loose a lure if I threw a Texas rig over there. I assumed it was a gnarly stump or something, but today I finally got some answers 😂 this side scan thing is truly a gift!

Short video of what I saw on the water yesterday

I got out today at Lake Anna in central Virginia with the forecast sunny and 50 degree air temperature. Ramp still had ice but a lane was opened from launch to the open water near by. We targeted two areas. An island with a shallow shelf and a deep drop off point. Then several points from two coves that had steep drop off channels. Upon arrival, we observed the seagulls diving after the bait. We thought we were in!
For the next two hours, we threw everything at the bait fish but no bites from bass or stripers. The seagulls continued and we could see the bait in their mouths. We threw lipless, crankbaits, spinnerbaits, wake baits, chatterbaits, Alabama rigs, scrounger, underspins and swim baits. No bites in the 39 degree water. Still glad I got out and was on the water. 😀
