Colchester, Vermont

MONSTER SMALLIE! New PB by far, at 21 by 14 inches or 5.1 lbs!. My scale is broken, but I got an accurate measurement. I then used length to width ratio from Wisconson DNR to get 5.1 lbs. Unfortunately, did not press record when I tried to take a selfie, but it really makes that 4" jerkbait look small. Also caught another 19" fish right after, and was exactly what I was looking for today. Both fish would also be eligible for the VT Master Angler program, which is crazy.

Successful little outing. Got in about 1.5 hours before the rain and caught this little Pike on the Eurotackle Nage Swimbait. Awsome take right at my feet

Broke the skunk! This guy ate on one of my last casts walking back to the car. Tried pretty much everything in my tackle box befor we this, but the steady retrieve with my trusty little cleo did the trick. Before getting to this spot, I drove for 3 hours and went to 3 other spots, but they all had separate problems. The grind paid off today. If I'm not mistaken, the jetty fishing should turn back on soon, so hopefully I can get on some more lakers next week.

Got away to the big lake for a day. Boy these suckers eat good.

Caught 2 angry little pike today off the kayak

Checked out the Dog River for the first time since the big floods. Needless to say, its a completely different system. Fished for hours and finally picked up this stud before heading home.

caught this guy when i was trying to clean the weeds of my line. first time lipping a bass. getting there 🤪
