Tokyo Tony Posted July 20, 2011 Posted July 20, 2011 Hey guys, haven't been to the site in quite a while, but it looks great, and it's nice to see a lot of the same people posting. My year has been unspectacular. Fished a bunch in April, with many largemouth from 4-5.5 lbs, and my friend caught a 7 lber the second time I took him out on my lake. Freakin kid beats my pb on MY lake which I've fished 100s of times, on his 2nd time out, and he's not even a bass fisherman. I still haven't heard the end of it. I haven't fished much lately. I don't know why my interest has waned, but I've been hitting the gym hard and doing other things. I guess it's just a down cycle. Reading threads here definitely makes me want to get back out there though. Anyway, I was fishing a couple weeks ago and this little bad**** hit my spinnerbait lol. I'll try to get around to posting some of the bass pics I have in the near future... Quote

ICU812 Posted July 20, 2011 Posted July 20, 2011 lol that's classic - I have a pic like that with a bluegill hanging from a flatfish bigger than the bluegill itself. Look forward to the bass pics - thanks for sharing! Quote

Super User Dwight Hottle Posted July 21, 2011 Super User Posted July 21, 2011 Nice to see your back Tony. Got love that perch's tenacity. Quote
Super User RoLo Posted July 21, 2011 Super User Posted July 21, 2011 Nice trailer on that spinnerbait. That's funny right there Tony, you've got me revisiting my northeast roots, if only in my mind. I often made length comparisons between yellow perch and the lure, and it commonly ran between 50 and 100%. As you eloquently put it, they are "ballsy" critters for sure.. Roger Quote
Tokyo Tony Posted July 22, 2011 Author Posted July 22, 2011 good to see youre still around bud. thats some good lookin water Thanks brush - that's my home lake. Love it when the water is at that level, but when it drops 2+ feet from there, where it currently is, I'm at a loss. I really think they're hugging the bottom in 20-30 feet. I'll find 'em Nice to see your back Tony. Got love that perch's tenacity. Thanks Dwight. Your avi reminds me - a guy was trolling for trout on my lake in 30', out in the middle, in 60 feet of water, and he landed a 6.5 lb smallmouth. You know, an average smallie for you haha That's funny right there Tony, you've got me revisiting my northeast roots, if only in my mind. I often made length comparisons between yellow perch and the lure, and it commonly ran between 50 and 100%. As you eloquently put it, they are "ballsy" critters for sure.. Roger Roger, I plan to live in FL within the next couple of years, so I'll be experiencing your northeast nostalgia when that happens and I see posts from up here. Perch are definitely ballsy and curious. Sometimes a whole school of 5-10 perch will follow my lure right up to the boat. They are also one of the prettiest species up here, in my opinion. Quote
Super User clayton86 Posted July 25, 2011 Super User Posted July 25, 2011 I had a similar experiance Friday night not a perch but a ballsy rock bass Quote
