Summer Doldrums

Trip hosted by Numbskull. I left the eels behind. The pictures are two different fish; in fact two different needles. Numby doesn't give me white plugs; so, I am forced to go out and buy them.

The Fish: 36-3 47" and 24-0 41"

The Plugs: SG Needle and a Gag's 9" Needle. Both rigged single treble only. No tail hooks.

All fish released, of course. Yet I practically kill myself pursuing them.

Bonds to all who love them enough to release them.

Nice fish Joe, you are on some nice fish!

Here's the best I could do last night, 22#'s on a tiger needle. This was the lone highlight from a verrrrry long night/morning. But it is august, and I guess any night you hear your drag is a good night.

Nice fish, Joe. We're scratching down here, but I hope it becomes showtime from up your way. Keep 'em coming.

Good stuff as well, DJ. Last pm seemed very slow where I was, too. Congrats for working a decent fish out of it.

Nice catch SK. Are those gloves hospital issued?

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

Yeah, on Numby's boat or his truck ( especially the truck which he hasn't washed since the day he bought it in 1998), if you don't where them you can easily pick up some un-pronouncable desease. Masks are advised as well.

Why even try.........

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.
