Hi guys, it's cool that there's a group for these fish they're so fun to catch!

Jim the flyrod outclassed the jig rod  hands down for these little guys .My favorite fly for these guys is a black ant .The 24th oz. black  Rabbit Fur jig took the biggest though .That one with the tape measure .Love these little fish!

I know what you mean John....but as long I get to see SOMEBODY catch a nice fish, I'm grateful....as long as it's not as big as the ones i'm catching! hahaha

You bet Jason .I only wish I caught this fine fish instead of my nephew LOL!

That's a cool pic! Those fish aren't afraid to hit anything if they're hungry....I've caught lots of them on crankbaits while fishing for smallies! And these crankbaits are literally impossible for some of those fish to even fit in their mouths.....gotta give them credit for trying! Thanks John!
