Had to some fun pan fishing this morning at a pond with my grandson. When he is only 21 months old “everyone was a big fish”! 😀🎣

Finished 4th out of 16 anglers in my little club tournament today on the Potomac River. Top 5 totaled 12.20 lbs and I caught 9 keepers all  in the grass with baby minus one knockoffs. My biggest ones came on a red and green one. Me and my partner also had well over 30 pounds worth of snakeheads caught. 

Got out in my local restricted horsepower reservoir and got two on a shallow running crankbait. 

Texas rigged gremlin in the hydrilla grass strikes again!

Happy 4th of July fellow anglers!

I’m going to fish Roanoke Rapids, NC next week. Anyone got any ideas of how to catch bass there?  I hear they have spotted bass also. 

Putting that work in! Black and blue gremlins , Texas rigged in the hydrilla produces two bass this morning. 😀🎣

Texas rigged black and blue gremlin strikes again in the grass. 

Heat wave coming to Virginia so I got out early and snagged a few before it got hot. Shallow running crankbaits were the hit. 

I went out fishing today with my friendly 4 inch shad soft plastic swim bait looking for largemouth bass. This nice 23 inch striper decided to give it a try. I don’t usually get the thrill of my spinning gear zinging as the fish is taking line out so this was great to experience. Looking forward to more. 😀 🎣
