Nice fish guys.
I got a nice fish this week at first light at slack tide in the canal on a large white Pichney darter I copied. I was as surprised as the fish. It was pouring rain that morning so I left the camera in the truck.

Got a few 20+ lb fish at Cutty this weekend on my plugs... the parrot darter was great at night and caught many fish . My red headed yellow pencil with white belly scored a nice 10AM 20lber after Johnny Duckett got a very similar one at daybreak on a pencil

Here's a couple from Cutty

Bluefish on a Spook made at Biteme's Place
And my PB from the surf on the First pencil I built at Biteme's place. For reference the set of wraps past the reel seat is taped out at 34" . It was the first bass I had ever caught on a pencil as well.

Not my wood, but I had a 46" C&R striper on a Killshot glide bait last week.

This thread needs a kick.

Here are some from the last month.
First is a @#30 fish that ate a yellow musso darter clone for my son
Then a fish that ate a banana just before I got hit by lightening
Then a pair of low #20s that hit simultaneously.

There are still fish out there guys. Anyone else fishing?

Banana!! Doesn't look like your normal white or yellow one. You have a new hot color?
