Nice to see, a nice fish caught on a Danny in a darter and needle world .. Guilty of not fishing them much ,,

Have to say that I'm not used to dropping so many fish, maybe that's why I don't usually fish plugs...

Or maybe that is why you should fish plugs. I think you are starting to learn.

Challenge accepted! I stuck with just fishing needles every outing last week. Had at least a couple fish every outing, nothing really big, mostly high teens to mid 20s and one 32 pound fish that took a green needle. It's been a lot of fun seeing how they perform in different areas with varying conditions and catching on something I actually made is great. I've even starting considering what color to throw, never had that problem with eels...

Now all I have to worry about is not running out of plugs before the end of the season.

First cast on it after 15 on a white magic swimmer (all shorts). I will never again say a full moon is too bright. Visited my dad at Bourne National Cemetery this week. Thought it only fitting to use one of his lures. Nice that he and I are in the same neighborhood. After the photo op she swam away fresh.

Yellow Danny

I turned a half dozen of these yellow dannies last year. Due to family obligations and work I haven't been able to get out as much this past year. In early Nov I got out before sunrise to witness nice size fish cruising the surf line chasing bunker schools.

Everyone was throwing yellow darters and bottle plugs. So, I follow suit and I can't catch a thing. After 5 to 10 casts with each plug I throw on my homemade "slim" yellow danny and on the first cast I catch a decent size bass. Screw that factory made stuff!

All times are GMT -5. The time now is 02:16 PM.
