The fishing has been pretty uneventful until tonight. When I caught this awesome specie: 

The second picture is me totally being a bitch about it, but you would be too if you had a pissed off gar snapping its teeth at you!

Caught some good fish. Also in one hole I got four different species on four consecutive cast’ . Overall it was my best day fishing this year yet, seeing as I caught over 50 fish in about 3 1/2 hours. Pumpkin Seed’s and Bass dominate this lake. But with the Green Sunfish in there now, it shouldn’t be long until they alone dominate the lake. Either way, this lake is great and I love it there. Here are the pictures of the four different species on four different cast’

regardless of size are tons of fun, especially on poppers. Hell, I will even take them on clousers. Proof positive it works is here.

I love bass, always have and always will. Not to say I don’t enjoy other species,but bass seem to be plentiful, pretty and full of piss and vigor. They will hit a top-water popper on top harder than any other fish I know of. Man do I love Bass.

Fished the Grand today for four hours and landed 6 fish. It could have been a better day, but I enjoyed the nice weather and the good company. We caught them on mostly everything we threw at them. Clousers, warm water mini fluffs, crease flys, stealth bombers and flashdancers, you name it, they hit it. It was a matter of keeping them on that was the problem. Especially with the crease flys as they would roll over them rather than hit them from underneath. Oh well, we enjoyed it… Even though the canoe hatch has happened early this year. Here are some pictures from today.

               Good fish, but not as big as the others, about 14″

Yes, you read it right, I will be heading to Sebring Florida on May 26th. It’s supposed to be a family vacation, but luckily my cousin and uncle love fishing and we will be doing our fair share of fishing. I hope to head to the ‘glades for a day or two. I hope to have a fishing report or two from Ohio before I go there, so I don’t leave all my readers hanging. Tight lines!
