Fishing has been nothing short of Great -


With so much bunker around, I'm waiting to see one pop-up in my toilet !!


OK, short story. Shore-Fishing this morning in the weeeeee hours, checked the usual spots for pogy dancing, found a big herd of them doing the circle dance. I tie on a brand spank-N new pogy snagger and toss her in. I normally let the line tighten and feel for at least the first bump on the line to make sure I'm in em' when I can't really see em'...................so OK, plop goes the snagger,................the line tightens.............it BUMPS...............I SNAG........................................and then..........WHOAH!!!!!!.......I end up landing a 20# fish with the snagger stuck IN the mouth. I never had a chance to snag the pogy, I'm guessing either mistaken identity, or my shiny pogy snagger looked apetizing to the fish. In either case, nice battle from a VERY fat fish. What a great way to start a fantastic morning of fishing. . .. ..

I must say this, I'm VERY impressed and EXCITED about the girth on these fish. It's great that the bunker seem to be back, but it's even greater to see FAT BASS feeding locally and not those skinny racers that were usually the norm a few years back.

fishAholeic, Irsih Spring/Palmolive and a Gob of that Orange Citrus hand cleaner........and my wife still can't get the smell of pogys off my hands...................AIN'T LIFE GRAND

...it finally happened, there are no more secret spots
