About to head out to the pond by my house for some night bassin. Hopefully I'll get a nice one.

[CountBassula]

Martin you guys staying close to home or venturing out?

 

i know Matt want's to take his boat out, but 6am on sunday may be a no go for me not this weekend at least... there was this one time when I wake him up at 5am to go fishing, he pretended to be all awake and ready but i know he was full of it i think if i put some fishing in this weekend it will be tomorrow PM and sunday PM...

[AK-Jax86]

It's funny. When I first started posting here forever ago I couldn't really find anyone from the Jax area on here. There are a lot now.

Me2 man I just saw you and Dave and now there's like 15 of us if not more

[AK-Jax86]

That day we both missed 2 big ones but I have had luck out there. I've fished it once with him and 3 other times either by myself or with Derrick. We caught a few I have luck in the AM, haven't been there in the evening yet though

All of that typing and I did not declare my intentions. I am in for the month of Sept. Since AK is on his football binge, MCS, this gives us a shot to win this thing this month. LOL. FSTR I hope you are reading this, and maybe you can play this month.

Hey! Just read it. Just came in to see whats going on. Been busy lately. Maybe if I get more than a grand total of 5 hours this month to fish, Ill play too.

[BassinLou]

Shan what's up man, nice to hear from you. It's been a awhile. You have to come back and represent for South FL.

[JaxBasser]

Caught one on a Red Eye Shad but it wasn't even worth measuring. Slow night. More bats and snakes than fish.

[CapitolP]

ok well i didn't measure any officially to throw my numbers up there but here's a couple for warms ups

 

i got me one and the ladies got themselves one each

 

everyone caught fish so it was good times all around

 

 

[CapitolP]

i wish i knew about this game last week though, the girlfriend unit caught this bad boy behind my buddies house after jiu jitsu

 

easily the biggest freshwater fish she's ever caught

Nice fish P...my 6 yr grapples, where is your gym at? Seen a place off beaches.

Just thought I would share; had a monster blow up last night on my brush hog as soon as it hit the water. I saw the splash, but then nothing. I jigged the hog a bit, and then there it was, the tick and the line walk. I waited about 3 seconds, then set the hook. d**n thing must have had just the tail end in its mouth because I ripped the bait out of its jaws. I would estimate the fish based on what I saw come out of the water a good 5-6lbs. d**n thing almost gave me a heart attack. Havent fished in about a month, so it was heart racing for me. I need to make a trip to BPS tomorrow afternoon to get me some new line for my Super Duty, but need to make it back in time to catch the UM game. FML

Yea man I have a lot of stories about missing the monster fish, it's rough especially when you ey to see what you missed!

Man I know the dilemma of fishing but our football dedication trumps fishing lol. Last night for example I went fishing caught a few and around 8ish I noticed a lot of activity on top water, I'm a frog guy, and since the first NFL game was set to kick off at 8:30 I left.

I do a lot of my fishing in the evenings and on weekends. Now that I am following college football this season weekends and some nights when big games are on are no longer fishing days.

[MCS]

Good luck man. I know it is suppose to get a little cooler, but as always the weather man is backing off on their drop only a couple degrees. No fishing for me til monday or tuesday, I know Lou is happy he will get a chance to catch up. LOL

[BassinLou]

I don't know if I will be able to go out this weekend. My house is being tented for termites so we had to move out for a couple of days. Don't all of you breathe a sigh a relief though. I brought my rod along with some stuff just in case... LMG, don't you hate it, when you haven't been out for a while you finally get a hit, and the fish becomes unbuttoned. Especially when its really descent fish.
