PG Report: 10/1/06 ... GO FISHING

I Apologies for the Late post, As I had a very Long Sunday. This Morning I hit the Same Bridge I hit On Saturday morning but this Time I hit it with Sara. Sara did well hooking up with 8 Bluegill on Her Light out fit as well as myself on mine. The Fishing was a little harder for me today as There is New structure in the Surrounding area and the water Was only 5 “ of clarity. so we were very careful on not losing our jigs in which we were already short supply on. I did end up catching 15 Fish total including Another crappie and Large Mouth bass. But the fish were suspending in 3 Feet of water While we were fishing about 6" above there head maybe a little more. But I did have a great time out with Sara today. We had a few laughs, Hugs, And Kisses Including Fish So Overall I think anyone would call that a success.

Here's Pictures of our outing, Sara Didn't want any of her today (Bad hair day I guess) So It'll Just be My Ugly Mug once again


This is me Posing With the Large Mouth Bass I caught Jigging For Blue Gills.

PG Report: 9/30/06 .... Crunch Time

PG Report: 9/30/06 .... Crunch Time

Good Evening Fishing Fans ! First Off I’d Really Like to Thank you For Your Continuous Views and Replies on my reports. Those reply’s are what motivate me to Keep Reporting. With Plans of hitting the Chain Today Neil called and Said it was Pushed to Sunday because of “Bad Weather” So I wont be able to go tomorrow. But Instead This morning I decided to hit the River. Since Tomorrow will Be October 1, I planned on hitting my Late Fall-All Winter open water Holes. And they proved to be very successful I hit Two bridges Catching a Total of 33 Fish. 3 Crappie, 3 Large Mouth Bass, And 24 Bluegill and Green Sunfish (Mixed). The First bridge I fished I caught the Nice Crappie and Large Mouth bass (Only 5 Minutes away from the House) The Second bridge, is my Pan fish Hole. Both Bridges Are about 3 Feet Deep next to the wall With Moderate Structure, Mostly Fallen Timber. The Bridge That REALLY Produces in the Winter and Caught the Nice Crappie and Large Mouth QUICKLY Drops into 6 Feet of Water, With Tons Of Timber of the Drop off.



Here’s Few Pictures of My Day ( Fished 9-11a.m.)


A Common sight by all Anglers, That Heavy Glare from the Sun...


Got Part of The Cray Fish Just as He Tried to swim off... We Had Some laughs .. CRAW BUG.. lol
(Inside Joke )



Then Hit under the Bridge... And Switched to a White Plastic
First Fish was a Decent Crappie That Hit HARD !














Then After pounding the Gills And Smaller Crappie.. I Decided to Set my Drag .. no apparent reason
Good Thing I did, Because This guy Made a Couple good Runs on my Light Outfit.

When I got home, Went to purchase a Few things.. I’m sure you know what these two will be used for...

finally Got to sit and talk to Sara, And Sophie about my outing. Sara enjoyed it... Sophie.. Not as Much
