They're getting bigger!! :eyebrow: :eyebrow:
Its so slow up here right now it's pathetic. The river is in the streets and peoples yards, the water is still cold. And I think I've caught 2 bass all year. :mad3:
The pic above is Katie and her prize from today. :iroll:

Heck last weekend Kristee thought she was cute catching fish while I couldnt, too.

I think I gave too much of my strategy away while they were growing up. Now they are my competition. :doh2:
Oh Lordy Jimbo! I showed my nephew that picture of Kristee with the bass, and said that's a good-looking fish, and he said what fish ? I think we may be kinfolk before long ha ha :innocentwhistle:
p.s. hard looking water conditions there.
Ya done a good job raising them gals Jim.
Do I see parking meters and a sewer manhole cover in the background?
HaHa I sure the girls never say were is yours Dad. The girls a cuties for sure. cc
I haven't done well on spinnerbaits before but hope to give them a try this year. Nice looking bass jim
That's a nice looking bass. Ive never had much luck on spinner baits, Ben.
Jim, glad to see your kids still fishing with you! :congrats:
Competition? I don't think so. Take that anyway you like...

I think "competition" was being used as an implied term. :laf: :laf:
I like that type of spinner for northern pike.
I bought a couple of those on sale recently at Cabela's to try on northern pike on a trip to Saskatchewan coming up in June. I've never fished with them. I picked up several of the similarly designed buzz baits with the noisy propeller that runs on the surface, and these with the spinner were also on sale so added them in.
I love the heart stopping surface strikes pike make on the buzz bait.
FWIW I made some pike lures a few years ago out of a salmon lure that worked well. I took a 4 inch size rubber squid that we call hoochies, put an egg sinker in the nose of it, ran six inch wire leader through the nose and sinker, and added a few large beads behind the sinker to position the hook near the back end of the trailing legs. Loop the front end of the wire and it is ready. I stayed with mostly red colors and pike loved it but the rubber body gets eaten up pretty fast!
Probably used spinnerbaits more than all else. Fishing for bass in Alabama and Virginia was also always with spinnerbait. I have used them for gills and crappie.
Jim, is that a RV park?
Thanks for the compliments gentlemen.
It's a campground yeah John. The sewer lid Carl sees is a firepit ring and the parking meters are electrical hookups. :laf:
