Man oh man did this feel good. I haven’t been fishing in nearly 3 weeks because I’ve been so busy and was rewarded with a decent one on my first cast. Fished for a couple of hours tonight and landed a couple decent ones and lost the biggest fish I’ve had hooked this year when it straightened my buzzbait hook out and it managed to spit in when it jumped. Overall a solid couple of hours on the water and I’m looking forward to a few more hours tomorrow! .

Weather was rough this weekend and made the fishing tough as well. Managed to hook into a decent fish bank fishing and then struggled the rest of the weekend. Caught a couple little dinks and lost a really nice fish at the boat today. . .

Sight fished this roaming male with a jig! It’s always such a good feeling to catch a fish on a lure you made yourself. This jig has always been so good to me and I’ve caught some dang good fish on it! . .
