Wanted to fish Friday as it was setting up nicely high was 80 light breeze and cloudy, but couldn't because of work. So I got 30 mins Saturday afternoon there was a 30 temp change and winds were blowing 20 out of the northeast. I went to a rock pile I knew and pulled this out on my second cast. I'm guessing around 4lbs

@Bluebasser86 are those Wild or stocked bows you have up there? That thing is a tank!

Found an off shore hump with a log laying over the top. Sat there for over an hour just bumping the jig up and over that log.

 

 

 

 

WOW that is a hawg. That one had to be worth the time spent trying to wrangle it.

Stocked, no where in KS for trout to reproduce and only 1 lake they survive year round in any numbers. I caught 2 that were 2 pounds bigger than that one on Monday

Slow day but caught a couple nice ones! Too bad the largemouth was all sickly looking.

Fished from about 3 on today . Post front conditions. Not a cloud in the sky. Worked hard to get 8. Most were caught on a 10 inch grape shad culprit. Its funny,  but as I woke up this morning I was thinking about using this bait today.

No hawgs, ( I lost one though ) but all decent fish.

Lost one today that was easily over 10lb. But we still had a blast catching them on lake Istokpoga.

Best part about visiting in laws on Thanksgiving is hitting their private pond after lunch. Here’s 9 of the 11 I caught in a couple hours. All roughly the same size. Can’t count the number of missed hookups.

 

 

And the two I caught today 

 

 

Once again, working the t-rigged Yumdinger(junebug).

Caught this tank yesterday. No scale or measuring tape(didnt have my normal bag,nor did I expect this size catch).  Laid her down for just a second  so I could take a pic to show scale.  She swam off beautifully and I packed up and drove home feeling high.

Just bought a Tatula SV 6.3 had it out to break it in. Rod I put it on was 7' MH/F Helios used a 3/8 SPRO Hair jig  Slow going five hours just one fish.

well said brother ?

Caught way more bass than I expected to yesterday, considering I set out to chase wipers. Those weren't cooperating like I'd hoped so I chased the green ones while looking for lost baits. Found 14 baits, including a Pompadour Jr, and caught one of the fattest/thickest bass I've ever caught on a homemade finesse brush jig. Only 16 3/4" long, but 3.26 pounds.

Caught several nice ones on a wart my buddy painted up for me.

Water temps 44 degrees and change, but they're still biting. We'll be catching them with ice on the lake in about another week to 10 days.

He paints a lot of my baits and does a reallynice job.

Not bad first hour in the late afternoon. Waded about thigh deep until my boots took on too much cold water and my feet started to freeze. 

 

I may not even touch a crank again until Spring. The t-rig is so productive right now for me.

 

[WDE]

No bites to be had at the first pond I dropped in on. Spent about 1.5hours there. Went to my current hot spot and threw the wading boots on. Landed one on the first cast, then 4 more in about an hour. Largest(bottom right) was probably in 2.5-3lb range. T rigged junebug Yum Dinger...again.

Didn't catch any picture worthy bass, but this rainbow was a nice unexpected gift and looked more like a steelhead than the trout we usually have around here. Weighed in at 4.5 lbs.

Awesome day today on Istokpoga. 2 over 7lb and a bunch of smaller ones. I lost a monster punching mats too.

I agree, that wart scheme is awesome! 

[Angealy]

@NorcalBassin: That's my kind of fish right there.

The rainbow trouts are such nice looking fish.

Beautiful, healthy trout NorCal, judging by it’s fins it sure doesn’t look like a planter!

Most definitely... always sad to see "trophy" trout in CA more often than not having a worn out rounded little tail from being a fresh plant. Anytime I catch a 3+ pounder with a full tail it's a quick pic without touching it and right back in the water to hopefully reproduce and let someone else catch one day.
