Masks??

Boy does it feel like a large yellow danny kind of night outside. 3/4 moon, no lighting to dodge, no wind, crisp & cool... Can't wait to get out there and see what happens...

Had the same idea. Beautiful night to be alive and fishing. Too bright, too calm, too low, was pretty slow but got this one out of nowhere. 24 lbs, hit like an express train while I was expecting nothing. Took a big donny surface swimmer clone.

Nice job G. Beautiful nite. I spent the nite in the boat after work trolling tube and worm, a few blues is all i got at sunup. Very slow.

Looks like Poindexter from Revenge of the Nerds goes bass fishing, "Where the odd get even"

Nice fish btw.

Fred,
Wednesday night I was fishing the big olive scaled atom style plug you gave me last year for the sol plugathon. I had on a real nice fish that hit the plug in a real bad spot. I ended up pulling the hooks trying to keep it from running around a rock. :smash::smash::smash:

I don't know whether to be happy or sad about that. We call that an "Ooooooooooh":eek5: moment. So, so close and yet so far away... Glad it gave you a rush tho.. Thanlks for the feedback:wave:

Caught this one about a month ago on a homemade trolling style swimmer(gibbs style) 30lbs 44" My personal best on a homemade so far... hoping to beat it this fall. I've also taken fish up to 25lbs on a professor m needle.... the fish love it. Took 2 fish on a blurple swimmer from slipknot as well. Thanks for the plugs guys.

Can I play even though I don't make plugs?

Gary Soldarti jointed pikie

ProfessorM 08-31-2008 12:55 PM

Nice fish guys

numbskull 08-31-2008 01:24 PM

How big a plug is that pikie? If that's a Moore's pikie lip, then that is some substantial fish. Gotta love jointed plugs. Nicely done.

Gary has his lips made for his plugs . I think they're made in like Germany .. I had a bunch of his plugs for Mac auction a couple of years ago . Glass eyes, mint paint ,, each one in its own fleece bag ,, Huge plugs ..Moore's pikie lip would look like a lefty on the plug I have ..

numbskull 09-01-2008 11:32 AM

Weird square lip on that plug, though obviously it works.

Jigman spook has been THE go-to plug along the islands this year (after Eddy schooled us with it last fall). Any plug that can pull up decent bass at a tough time of year under bright sun conditions is a quality design. Today, 11 am.

Flaptail 09-01-2008 04:04 PM

Nice! Let's see, at 11 am today I was haulin' a years worth of bedding, clothes and sundry supplies up a flight of stairs on Brookline Ave in Boston moving the youngest back into her dorm. I knew I was getting vibes from somewhere.

Well, the oldest is Dublin for three months, the youngest in Beantown and the wife is back in her classroom welcoming the new class of kindergarteners back tomorrow.

The cape gets quiet and the fall is on. Been a long two weeks it's my turn now!
