Classic! Wonderful photo!

For me to catch them in my pond I would have to get the worm bast the BG and GSF, which is hard to do since the GSF will hit anything that lands in the water.

 

Heck I tried to catch some CC from the pond with liver and they were hitting it on the way down.

 

Crazy stuff.

Great pic!

Definitely frame that picture, what a great photo. Those are two very large crackers, the one you're holding looks to be way over a pound.

The one on the left is definitely a male.  The RES on the right is probably a female.  They are gorgeous fish.

I agree with Jeff.  That's a classic.

Greg!  What a fantastic photo!  Enlarge that sucker, put it in a nice frame and hang it in a place for everyone to see!  It's all about having fun with the family, especially the kids!  A great memory.

Thanks Bruce!

A day my son will hopefully remember for a long time! At least until the day he catches more and bigger fish! LOL

Thanks Marisa!

We caught them on small 1/32nd oz horizontal jigs with plastics and a piece of worm. Also caught some on my Wade's Blades tipped with a waxworm or small piece of redworm.

 

We did not use floats, as the fish were in 9-12 feet of water. Just casted the jigs out by themselves and let them sink to the bottom, hopping them up and down slowly or dragging them slowly across the bottom, till you found them.

 

Great fighters on medium-light action rods.
