Spoons catch the hell out of freshwater fish. They're just not super popular for FW anymore. 1/16 and 1/8 oz weedless Johnson silver minnow will wreck bluegill and small bass. A black Johnson silver minnow with a pork rind was king of the pads for bass back before hollow body frogs. Daiwa makes a s...

Might as well dump a mini fishing report here. I haven’t tinkered and finished with my planned homemade thing yet but I did stomp away so mad from something else that on the way out I grabbed a fishing pole and left. I went to my secret Specks hole that I’ve talked about before and low and behold I ...

I’d like to hear any fishing stories involving these, and if they’re actually called something else I’d like to know that to lol! It looks like “splinter” might just be what Johnson call their version of this spoon that I knew nothing about until I got some through an abandoned tackle box acquisitio...

I’ll definitely have to post it. I’m taking a break from working so I better not go get into my fishing stuff right now. If I did I might not get any more work done lol!

Nice. It’s been an easier fall for fishing than we’d been having iirc. I’ve never caught a Redfish on lures meant for Redfish. Granted I’m not a flats man and most of the ones I’ve caught have been on accident. The few I’ve caught on purpose with Gulps are even rigged a lot different than what peopl...

Nice! I’ve always said I was going to go down south and catch a Peacock Bass 1 day. Somebody recently gave me some nontraditional spoons out of an old tackle box that have a name but I have no clue what it is. I was able to find a few but not many videos of them on YouTube once but can’t find them a...

I’m interested in hearing the Tucker Lake report.

I caught a Grouper out there a little farther than the rock garden when somebody took me fishing a long time ago. He was just short. I haven’t caught 1 of everything from the flats yet but I caught that Grouper.

A friend of mine who is a Taylor County native, who is also one of the few people I consider a remarkable fisherman, has caught them from there his whole life. If I told you how you’d laugh lol! I didn’t believe him until he showed me. This is the first year I’ve heard it repeated more than once tho...

Can you walk to Chaires Creek and end up somewhere besides the bridge?

Hickory Mound is a place I haven’t heard mentioned in a couple years it seems like, after it had became to crowded for me. Maybe the last couple of wet summers have shooed people away. There are nothing but crabs out there, but they were under so much pressure they were all medium sized. Maybe that’...

I caught mullet legally and without a net even July 4 evening! I planned it around the crowds. Started that evening and fished til dark and caught 3. I then went yesterday and caught 6, and left with what was plenty. They were grouped up good and I could have caught 100. Those mullet fishermen...I’v...

I sent you PM here and it’s still in the outbox. I think you want to check it

I’m going somewhere the crowds won’t be. I haven’t decided where just yet.

Alright alright alright! I went back after that almost-cold snap and the mosquitoes were tolerable. I walked around some to and saw/decided that they connect to Cow Creek during floods. Cow Creek of course is the creek you cross just before you get to Goose Pasture. I thought what I was looking at o...
