I haven't caught large quantities but the quality has been great this year. I just caught a even 5lber on the 4th of July but it was 23 1/2 " long. It was a largemouth and it was all mouth and then it tapered down. I bet it will be over 6 by mid to end of summer. The tail was all beat up by spawning but it was a outstanding battle. I've also been getting standard 2 - 3lbers which are decent in the northeast. My lucky color is Candy Apple Red with Red Flake. I get a lot of doubters on that color but I've been able to make them believers.
So far so good. The weather is the only thing that controls my time on the river. Living in central Fl it gets hot as all get out in the summer months, so i`m off the river around 10-10:30 in the morning.
Fishing a "T" for a shot at some money changes all that of course.
Fishing Has heated up in the U.P. About 50 to 60 a day with about 5 to ten nice ones each time. Of course I'm talking about bass. All catch and release.
RipLip I know how it is. I think their is a late spawn going on in some lakes all around. They should of been done a month ago here if not ealier. But they still a fun to fight plan and simple no matter what the weight.
My season going good considering all the rain and flooding. Moving alot of fish and old dad here even managed to pick up a few here and there. Any day musky fishing a good day on the water, its even better when your kids are with you to do it.
