Today was one of those days – well for me, anyway. I had something to take care of earlier in the day, so I couldn’t head out to the water with Khalil at 8:30. Which was too bad, because by the time I got out to the lake he was fishing at today, all that was biting were the smaller bass. I caught 5 of them, but not a one was over 8 inches.
But Khalil had a great day; he caught some of the biggest bluegill (on live earthworms) I’ve seen to date and a couple of nice bass (on you guessed it, 5 inch Senkos) to complement his weekend fish fry.
These are some nice sized bluegill. When you can catch bluegill like these, who needs bass?
We do! Yeah, someone forgot to center their subject(s) while taking this pic.
The weather was perfect today; overcast with a slight breeze to help keep us cool – I doubt it’s going to be much longer before the stifling heat and humidity set in for a couple of months. Then, we’ll only be out there very early in the morning or late afternoon/evening.
Yet another great day fishing in the ROK!
So, Where you going to smoke those Bluegills?
Only in approved smoking areas – of course!
