IMG_20150827_191257 Not a Gill but BFOTD at 17" class
20150827- Had a 2 hr slot to fill so I went looking for the crappie bite since they were hitting so good yesterday. Could not beg for a hit. Scanned areas with the sonar for schools on favorite spots … I could not mark a fish! I figured they were buried in the deep weed edges so I cast jigs down tipping the weed edges… not even a blue gill nibble. So I went looking for the B’Gill bite in the slop… a consistent pattern for the Gillage all summer long with the kayak. One 6 incher on the float and Pink Gulp Waxie. Was just about ready to call it a day when I saw a bruiser school of LMB slowly swim past the kayak… talk about stealth! I cast the shoreline in their direction and hooked up! This fish tore up lily pad bed slicing my 6# Power Pro line thru the slop. Amazing fight especially on the 6-0 UL. BFOTD at 17” class.

thanks Carl ... i cant believe i catch so many of these guys on a 1/2" long bait ... even in the winter. hey it keeps your attention span going when the bite is slow.
