Missed Opening Weekend But....

Missed Opening Weekend for Early Teal Season.  But, back in the swing and hope to make it out this weekend.  Going light since the old Jon Boat still needs painting.  Regardless, cool temps should make the morning hunts interesting!

Hula Popper Gets a Bite Or Two This Evening!

After a late start, made it out to Bethany this evening.  Went with Baitcasting Gear and a Hula Popper.  Fished it fast with no strikes.  Fished it slow and started getting strikes.  After about 30" finally hooked a Bass, then caught a decent Catfish that easily makes the COAF Leader Board.  Estimating the Catfish went about 20" plus; not a bad outing!

Tough Time of Year....

Been itching to go fishing but work and other things have slowed us down.  This made worse knowing Early Teal Season is here.  So, is it fins or feathers we go after.... Tough choice but made a little easier in that work is keeping us away from both.  No complaints though, given the alternative. For now, bear with us as we weather this "rough patch" and maintain our day jobs!

Three Bass While Out and About

Caught three Bass this morning while on the road from a small private pond.  Water was stained and muddy but it looked like a Watermelon Senko worked at least for three Bass lurking in the pond.  Fun stuff!

Cool Front Still Here; Caught Two Bass.

Still enjoying the cooler temps.  Ended up catching two Bass; did miss one that came off the hook while landing it.  Fun stuff!

Another Go This Afternoon....

Another go this afternoon at Bethany.  Brought the fly rod this time.  Fished a Damsel Fly and caught mainly Sunfish and Bluegill.  Did get one Bass though from the creek that flows out of the Lower Pond.

Cool Front Slows Things Down....

Cool front arrived last night.  Looks like Summer is nearing an end.  Front slows things down for us.  This round caught two Bass.  One went for a Spinnerbait; other went for a Senko!  Fun stuff!

Morning Trip Gets Several Bass....

Tough getting away this week.  Managed to fish this morning.  Caught several Bass!  Started with the Rooster Martin without luck.  Switched to an Orange Rooster Tail and was able to hook up with five scrappy Bass!

Three More Bass This Morning....

Made a modification to the Wooley Rooster Martin; went with a Size 6 Treble Hook this time.  Seemed like a better hookup rate compared to yesterday.  Caught three Bass; no Bruisers.  And, yes... it is still fun!
