Not to mention that the weather stinks, you're unable to go fishing, and you've already organized that durn tackle box so many times that the plastic hinges snapped off?"

37 bluegill from 2.0-2.99 pounds     19 CNBG and 18 Northern strain

Been a while since I've been on the blog. I was busy with the fall striper run in CT and never got any panfish to hit locally before ice started to finally form.

Have been out on the ice 4 times since it became reliable in CT.

Jigged up a number of calicoes with a chrome blue Rapala Jigging Rap W-2 rigged with no extra bait while at Dog Pond.

Have been to a quarry in Wilton twice recently and jigged up a number of 8" bulls and a few yellows all…

So 2013 is off and running. There is very little ice on our waters here, so no hard water to stand on, cut through and pull some panfish through, instead, time to get some homework done and time to for training. 

I have begun training hard to get ready for a big fishing gear, rehabing an old arm injury and getting the weight off. Three weeks into the year, I hate lifting weights, but I know I will need it. I am going to have a challenging 2013 and accomplish a lot in fishing. If I…

alright so i use to go pan fishing every day with my dad but 6 years ago my dad had Thyroid   cancer and i haven't been able to go. well hes feeling better and i was wondering if someone could help me i use to only use a hook and bobber needless to say i don't catch many fish so i was wondering if anyone could help me out by saying how to pan fish in the spring and what to use? thank you 

I watched 4 guys pile into a small jon boat yesterday and head out. The wind was blowing fiercely and it was cold... it had me ducking for a lee shore. These intrepid blokes didnt have 6" of gunwale showing, yet they were undeterred. Part of me was worried for them, the other half applauded their tenacity.

I hope things turned out well for them....

A 20 pack of wilper magic lures from Bruce Condello if you can be the first to help me get ahold of Fish Chris Wolfgram.  He is a member on BBG.com, and I have to talk to him before Friday night in regards to a story I'm writing.  I think he's from California!

Help me out, BBG'ers!!!

Well, folks...I got a little bored this weekend and created a new website.

www.meanmouthbass.com

Non-interactive, but meant to show off a few types of hybrid gamefish, and also promote some friends businesses.

What do you think?
