New season smallies
« on: April 28, 2009, 08:56:07 PM »
Action is starting to heat up; I've been out a few times this spring fortunately.



Back in late March, we did a couple of floats - on this one, my son Jack was with me; he caught his first largemouth and I was fortunate enough to be able to assist with the net. 



He got a little instruction from a buddy of mine...



After that, he was done with the pole and he played his video game the rest of the way...that was, until I offered a guide tip for his manning the anchor and the oars in some slack water...





...where he did put me on some fish!





April 3rd, another friend and I caught about 30 fish or so this afternoon, all on spinning gear, primarily black and blue jig'n'pig....







Then earlier today for a couple hours, on flyrod topwater - three decent ones (3-4lbers) caught on wiggle minnow, popper, slider-type:










They'll be off the beds in a couple weeks and then look out!

Hope you get to!  Here's also hoping for about 24 hrs between any fierce weather and your fishing it - the fish oughta go nuts.
