A few from last week...

MIbasser · 07-02-10, 11:56 AM

Well, I was in Grand Traverse Bay last weekend and went after some smallies, however they didn't like me! My two that went 4 1/2 lbs.

And Al's 3 that went over 11! His big fish was 4 1/2 lbs. Yes, guys he's even an Alabama fan.....

And a LM that I hooked last night at my home lake, 2 1/2 pounds and a little skinny...

Good deal man... them brown fish are too fun!

It seems like the smallies on Erie this year are acting real strange. We are having alot of days with only 4-6 keepers, when last year it was more like 15-20. The size is way down. Every once in a while, we hook into a 4+ lber.... but hey that's fishing, gotta take the bad with the good. Congrats.

What a beautiful place it is up there. At least you got to catch some fish and enjoy that area. I've never been up there but I've heard that it is really good during the spawn but maybe after that they just scatter to who knows where. Hard to figure out someplace as big as a sea in a short period of time.

Good looking fish man! I like the way that hook looks too, is that one made by owner?

Cavs1123 · 07-03-10, 11:43 AM

No, I think they are BPS hooks (can't remember for sure). I only use them on wacky rigs.
