Here's a nice fish on one of the darters George gave me at plugfest. It was 28# and took the darter down headfirst, that's the tail of the plug sticking out of the mouth...

That's been one of my 'go to' plugs. I hope it makes it thru the season...

Don't worry you didn't give away all the good ones. The one i got from you got a small keeper on it's first cast on the first night I brought it with me. Since then any it has been in my plug bag I got the skunk. On another note here's some decent fish on my spooks and canal specials.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

Here's a snapshot of a happy lttle guy the other night. Caught on his own wood. The smirk on his face gives me the creeps though.
