Holdovers
 

Me and Samadams327 tried for holdovers today.
No fish, but Sam did lose a new pencil popper to a tree.
Saw allot of geese.
IT Beats sitting at home with your thumb up your ass though

Damn Tree!!!!

Might have had my thumb up my ass....:eek: ....but at least I still got all my pencil poppers...:uhuh: and a couple of needlefish plugs fresh off the lathe!:kewl:

Where ja go...if ya don't mind burning your spot.....I mean people are lurking everywhere to find out where the holdovers aren't coming from.:laugha:

Sounds like I am being a smart guy but just curious where you went, pretty good day for it, and it most certainly was better than a thumb up my ass.:eek5: :err: :btu:

I know where they went

Some where in mass...near water

Sorry...I have been sworn to secrecy (sp)...I don't want any concrete boots added to my waders:D

If your not gonna tell me then there is an easy way to find out....:confused: I will look everywhere for the tree with the brand new pencil popper in it!:rude:

Course' I will only check the trees near the water!:tm:

it is a little bit early for PP's up here. you guys would have been better of casting in a field than throwing them in the river. live and learn. :smash: or not...........

get jiggy with it for holdovers:)

next weekend i will go, depends on weather.:)

yeah
 

whatever, at least we were fishing.
It was still fun being back out on the water.
Toby will you be going to AandDs tuesday night.

When fishin' is the mission.....don't be wishin'.....you don't need permission......don't ya listen....get out there fishin'!!:happy: :happy:

Like you guys said Scarecrow....it beats a fat digit in the posterior!
:eek5:

yep, i'll be there.

remember, there is no point throwing the large plugs until the large bait is present. right now, the holdovers will be feeding on native food sources such as river shiners and small fish. throw small jigs if you feel the need to try it again. try something in the in the 1/2 ounce or smaller size. unless you have a boat, you most likely will not get into stripers. if you don't find where the stripers are, you at least have a shot at getting a smallie. good luck.

yeah
 

I threw a blue and white half ounce bucktail with a small grub.
But ya know how it is fishing there with a jig, cause theres some much #^&#^&#^&#^& on the bottom. Im certainly gonna take your advice on the walleyes though toby.I let ya know how I did.

Thanks. See ya tuesday.:D

Alot of smelly thumbs today me thiinks...:laughs:

i'll go
 

hey pete- let me know when you are going again....i'll meet ya there. I PM'd you my cell#

HOLDOVERS!!!!!!
 

Tried the downstream side of the Amelia Earhardt dam in Somerville yesterday. I caught 4 schoolies from 18 - 25 inches on 5 inch Fins on 1/4 oz. jigs. I lost 4 other fish to poor hooksets.
I was using light tackle, which kade it much more fun.
I looks like the holdovers are schooling up in preparation for the impending herring and alewife runs.
