Very nice indeed.

Are those fish feeding on mysis shrimp?  They look like they eat a lot of protein...  ;)

the two bows are mysis fed. we actually caught all fish except for one that day on mysis. The bottom fish broke me off at the net and then two hours later my buddy caught him. we knew it was the same fish because he still had my full rig up to the weights in his mouth. the cutt is a lake run fish tho about 22" i was alone so i couldn't get a full body shot of him

I thought so by their looks... Were they Pan, Taylor, or Blue?  I am taking a quick trip up to the Pan in April with a Southwest ticket I have to use before it expires on 4/16...

those were from the taylor. I hit the pan at least a couple of times a month during the winter season. Let me know when you are heading out and i'll give you some suggestions. I have a couple of spots that should be on fire by then.

Nice! The big Taylor fish are also very smart fish, and not easy to catch!  Thanks for the offer on the Pan - I'll be in touch.  I have fished it several times top to bottom and I love the upper section.  I have a few favorite spots, but I'd certainly be willing to explore some others!

Cheers,

I'll be on the Frying Pan April 13-16.  Not an ideal time, but hopefully I'll find some action...
