Going to look for more of these guys tomorrow.......put new line on both of my favorite spin casting reels last night to be ready for the monsters.....

It was a combination....both the return of the water that was pushed out from earlier wind tides and the rebounding temperatures Dick....I fished early yesterday and saw almost a 10 degree drop in water temps....this hurts the bluegill bite in my region, especially coppernose...they seem to be more temperature sensitive....If I was a patient man, I would have only fished from 6 to 8 last evening but I'm not....I always prefer to try and try again...I just love to wet a line period....

Do you think the water temp had something to do with there aggressiveness?

Big brutes!
Funny, I haven't had a telescoping pole on the water yet.

Who is the scary looking dude holding your fish?

You don't need more than a few of those for a good dinner!

I own one Carl but I prefer telescopic for probing heavy cover or a spincaster for reaching out.....I do occasionally throw a popping bug but more often a sinking bug from the fly rod.....
