My favorite lure to catch fish on is any topwater but mainly a frog ! I love frog blowups. Second would be a jerkbait.

Yeah that’s how much the plastic ones were ... I don’t use eBay much but I’ll have to check next time

X3

I got the plastic , I know glass is a little clearer but the extra 100$ price point wasn’t worth it.. that and shatter resistant .. if a bait comes flying back and hits you in the eye , I would rather not have shards of glass in my eye

I’m trying to get a 6 pounder to mount .. I would take a 7 though if it bit

I’ll be lucky if the air temps hit into the 70 and 80s this year lol

So it’s safe to say you just need eyeballs ? Lol jk

How did they get it out ?

Tackle warehouse ? Or Carolina fishing tackle might

Not to get to sentimental but I wanna thank everyone for the good talks and positive encouragement on here. The pics I get to look at and all the info I get to read keeps my mind busy. This has probably been the worst year I have had in a long time personal life wise and it has taken a toll, the fishing is what is keeping me sane and all the helpful and nice people around here and on the water. That being said it’s been a great year for fish! Here are some more brown fish from Memorial Day

Got myself some costas! Green mirror fantail series. Let’s see those fish !

Green mirror over copper or amber ? Howcome. Everyone else suggests the copper or amber Why green as stated above ?

No I don’t need prescription. Just want a decent pair of polarized to see he smallmouth , should have stated I’m after smallmouth

Some guys were out today in the lake just killing it with bedding bass .. I wasn’t able to see them but they could see them clear as day. With TW sale going on I’m wondering what is s good pair of glasses for specifically sight fishing. He mentioned costas but wasn’t sure what kind.. price Range is 150-175$

Another good day of big brown bass, tomorrow will be the third day of warm stable weather ! Going to have a long 8 hour water session tomorrrow ! Can’t wait

I would also recommend a nucanoe kayak, I own a nucanoe frontier 12 and have been in the pursuit model, both are amazing ! Super stable and light

I have no experience with those but I can tell you about the nucanoe series. I own the frontier 12 and it is amazing ! You can walk and jump and do whatever on it. Stable and moves just fine. The pursuit is amazing also

Yeah this is always the hardest part of the year for me. @papajoe222 I went out the past couple days and the smallmouth have been treating me well. They want it slow though , crawling bottom or good 5 second pauses on the jerkbaits

As the topic stated , looking to grab something from the 15% from tackle warehouse sale. I use a black pack from yak attack for my kayak but I need something else to hold the rest. soft plastics , pliers , fish grippers and to be able to hold plenty of Plano boxes. My current one gets wet on the bottom and soaks threw on long days in the water. Looking for something more secure. I have a frontiers 12 so it has plenty of space for a decent. sized bag behind me.

Haven’t been out as much lately but still catching the big brown beauties

I was targeting largemouth I went out today and saw some empty beds , happy birthday also. , but the water temp on Erie where I am is around 54-55 as the fish finder says on my buddy’s boat. So this inland lake has to be warmer than that

New York , by buffalo I tried everything all natural and not. presentations were senkos , jigs , swimjig, ned rig , swimbaits , tubes , bottom contacts of all kind. spinnerbait , chatterbaits

So this is my hardest part of the year for me. I went out today on a small inland lake , it is fed by a large creek. Just 4 weeks or so ago the fishing was amazing (pre spawn) and was catching them on anything and everything super shallow. Now the water temps have gone up a lot , not sure but the last time I knew 4 weeks ago they were around 52-55 degrees as it’s a smaller lake and warms fast. Today when I went out I “tested the water “ and say it’s warm enough that if you happen to fall in then you would be fine and could just swim around. Might be a little cold and not super comfortsble but you would be fine. Anyways , I looked for bass on beds and couldnt find any , tried shallow , couldn’t find any I went deep and also no luck.. went from anywhere to inches of water to 20 feet. Water is clear where you can see 10 feet to the bottom.. this time of year I struggle till it warms a little more and can be csught again.. where would they be at this moment of life ..

Nice im about 20 minutes from the PA line. Like 40 to Erie

New York ?
