Today I went fishing right smack in the heat of the day (2:30-4:30 p.m.) smart me. But besides the 86 degree weather I caught a decent fish. It was a 15" chain pickerel on a Scum Frog lure that I modified. I have pics of both the fish and the lure on my account. Pretty good day, but only one fish unfortunately...

I went night-fishing for the first time ever and honestly I don't think it lives up to the hype. I actually had a great time though... sight-seeing. I saw a lot of bats, a cool walking-stick type bug, crayfish, (which I have a pic of on my profile) minnows, and a lot of frogs! Still anyways, after having caught a crayfish in a bucket, I had a great time.

Went fishing on my backyard pond and caught two fish which I have some pics of. Brought my neighbor along he caught two fish as well. Had a good time. At first tried fishing frogs on the top-water, that didn't work so we went to fishing live worms which did work.

Today I went fishing with my neighbor in my backyard pond. Caught only one fish but noticed that they were really biting on the top-water lures. My neighbor had a strike on a Scum Frog lure. And I caught a fish using a Rapala Skitter Walk lure. But all in all had a good time. Oh the fish was a pickerel.

Went Fishing in my backyard pond and brought my uncle along. Figured I would go today to test out my new gear, see how it looked in the water, and it's action, and especially how it catches fish! I caught one fish, but unfortunately my uncle didn't catch anything, he hasn't had much luck lately....
Oh by the way I caught the fish on a bass pro shops XPS spoon.

I went fishing in my backyard pond with my dad and caught 5 fish. Unfortunately my dad was out of luck... again. Three of the fish were chain pickerel and 2 were largemouth bass, I seem to be catching those kinds of fish lately. Even though my dad didn't catch anything he still said he had a good time just being out there and so did I. And, in my opinion, that is really the best part, just being out there and having fun with friends/family.

Today i went fishing in my backyard pond equipped with all of my lures when it turned out that only two ended up working! On this trip I caught six largemouth bass, and two chain pickerel. One of the bass was of decent size, the others... eh.
