Super User A-Jay Posted March 16 Super User Posted March 16 Big Fish Jeff just returned from what looks like an unforgettable trip to Colombia. Fishing for Peacock Bass on the remote Tomo River in the heart of the Amazon. 20 lb Fish are rare and saying they are hard to get to is a wild understatement. Congrats my friend. A-Jay 17 Quote
MassBass Posted March 16 Posted March 16 Limited out on holdover rainbows. Two on silver spoon, one on spinner. They were biting good in the south breeze. 16 Quote
Super User T-Billy Posted March 17 Super User Posted March 17 Took 7hrs to get bit, but I'm officially on the board for 25. Only 35.5" but she's a tanker. Plum full of eggs and shad. 19 Quote

Fishlegs Posted March 20 Posted March 20 Nice! @TnRiver46 I stopped at the river after work a couple of days ago and caught 5 in 10 minutes, but they were all little. Those look like big 'uns! 2 Quote

Global Moderator TnRiver46 Posted March 21 Global Moderator Posted March 21 Yes it’s a nice reel! The only thing I wish it had was anti reverse switch because I’m a backreeler but I’ve been using the drag and it works smoothly, has a pleasant sound to it 😂 It casts a mile with 6 lb mono, I’ve got a fairly whippy rod paired with it, which is also awesome for feeling that light “tick” of a bite on top of the long bomb casts Quote
Super User T-Billy Posted Sunday at 09:46 PM Super User Posted Sunday at 09:46 PM Them dirty nippers are messing with me!!! 😂 Six bites in six hours today, and only one made it in the net. 🤦♂️ She's an absolute chunk of a 34" though. 17 Quote
Sp33dSnake Posted Monday at 02:41 AM Posted Monday at 02:41 AM Walked to Taylor Creek, there are a lot of little waterways that go in and out of Lake Okeechobee. Since it's always Rattletrap season, I started throwing in a colorful one with a 8.2 Shimano SLX XT and my trusty BPS Tourney 6'6" medium fast rod. Within 15 minutes, I caught a fish, and was in Mudfish city. Catching something, is better than nothing....I guess. Now that I think about it, I've caught Nile Perch, Catfish, and Mudfish with this rattletrap...but no bass. Like, none. My lure looks like it survived the Ardennes in World War One now, but it still rattles..and still catches anything other than bass, lmao. 11 Quote

JackstrawIII Posted Tuesday at 11:42 AM Posted Tuesday at 11:42 AM Nice upstate NY walleye caught a couple weeks ago, my biggest ever. 14 Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted Tuesday at 07:11 PM Global Moderator Posted Tuesday at 07:11 PM Took my boys out for a few hours Sunday evening where a creek runs into the river. Everything gathers here in the spring but all we found were little channels and drum. Nice weather and the boys were having a blast chasing frogs and cranking in fish. 10 Quote
