Great haul Guyon!

I love when the top water bite is on! I got lucky a few times with Small Mouth, Stripers, and even Yellow fin in the past! Good times....

What plug did you throw at them?
 
I love white bass fishing. I dont like to fillet them. It takes a while to cut out the red meat then when its finished the fillets are half the size. My experience anyways.

First day was a Yo-Zuri topwater plug that one of the bastids stole! :mad: Had to switch to a Heddon Tiny-Torpedo.

I noticed that the minnows/shad they were eating were pretty small, so the second day, I used a small silver Zara Spook. Look how chewed up it got.

The red meat is a little more fishy tasting, so I did cut some of it out. We had the neighbors over for fish tacos last night.

Soaking in buttermilk overnight though takes out a lot of the really fishy flavor.

Mine was a few pounds lighter and this one was taken by a shark. The first mate figured it was a 30lb + black fin tuna taken by a bull shark, the reef got real quiet after it was taken, he said that always happens when a large predator shows up.

Went out for some topwater fun this past Monday. Caught a few in an hour or so. Striper fishing makes me CRAZY!!!

Sorry, no pictures of any fish to share, but I couldn't resist sharing a picture of the "fishing hole". Just got back from a trip to the Eastern Highlands of PNG. There were supposed to be trout in the stream, but no luck for me. Still a unique experience. Guess that's why we call it fishing and not catching! Hope to get out and do some catching here at home soon.

Burt (just 6 years old) went straight to the big boy reel.....no kiddy reels for him.

Fishing at a little lake west of Buena Vista, CO. The kids caught all of these themselves. I was busy baiting hooks and fishing kids out of the water.
