I'm slackin............

Yes I know, I know, I am slacking on the job, I apologize  that I haven't posted at all. Even though I have done barely any fishing, I still owe A YEAR IN REVIEW.

SOOOO...........

Stay tuned, this week I will try my hardest to catch everything up to date. Thanks for being patient!

Doubled up!

Hit a double, but then the rest of the day was slowww with minimal fish.....

That one fish.....

With everyone catching a lot of big fish this year, I have yet to connect with a true brute......
               This past weekend I changed that..........This pig came to hand.....

The slob fought like hell, as it was dime bright. It happened to be my first fish of the day, I was stoked.
           Even though its no giant, its a solid 31.5" x 16.5" fish. Thanks for the awesome pics Ken.

Admiring that beautiful fish...........See you on the creek.....MARIO

New Water

We had to drop someone off at the airport this morning, so we thought, how can we pull some fishing into this deal? The Rocky River was close by so we decided to give it a go. As with any new water it is always a new adventure, as a fisherman, your always wondering "Whats around the next bend?" or "Whats that water look like below the next riffle?" After quickly finding our way into the park , we decided to try the lower river. After it got light out, I hooked one pretty fast. But this fish decided to break me off. He later antagonized me by sitting 10 feet in front of me, my float bobbing up and down. I "Re-hooked" the fish on the float and got part of my rig back- that was funny. After exploring some new water, we were very impressed  with the access and the amount of fish-able water. So to all of you who are within 15 minutes of this Metro-Park, I'm not afraid to say that I am jealous. It was a good day on some new water. Tight lines......................MARIO
