This is one of my two hoop nets... I’m gonna knock’em down with this!!! I have the luxury of living a couple miles from the Mississippi as well as having a cabin there. Pretty sweet.

Holy shit!!!
Yeah this little hot spot we found at a drainage ditch has an abundance of the following fish: channel cats/blue cats...nothing less than 15-20 lbs, bass 4-7 lbs, walleye, musky and THOUSANDS of stripers that are the size of my hand! . It’s been like that for 10 years now... and no exaggeration... the fish there are huge for whatever reason...every one of them except the stripers!!! It’s a little hot spot located between the Mississippi and the fourth pumping station. It’s unreal. Weather hasn’t cooperated for that spot yet this year, but you can see them... they are still there... they are just a bit messed up from the weather. |

Hit hard as hell and felt like a snag when I reeled him in. Got him about 3 inches below the surface at a drainage ditch... right in front of the tunnel.
Caught him and like a 2-3 lb freshwater drum/perch that didn’t hit like a perch... hit like a bass...didn’t fiddle. Both with the turquoise green beetle bait. |

There will be several more hotspots when I start stocking these ponds with what I catch in my hoop net. A lot of farmers requesting huge channel cats and flatheads for their ponds. My deal with them is that I will stock it for free as long as I’m allowed to fish there.

That lure, without question, has been the most effective for me this year. I’ve caught probably 75% of the bass with that one... and I’ve tried hundreds of lures this year. That one is “Old Reliable” status right now. Coming in a distant 2nd is the blue and black Chatterbait (and I have like 8 colors for Chatterbaits...for whatever reason, the blue and black): My life situation recently has allowed me to get back in touch with some of the things I was allowed to do 10 years ago. I know EXACTLY what you mean about the kids. And they are so antsy and impatient that the bobbers don’t stay out there long enough. Haha my girls are 2, 7 and 8. The older two also tend to get bored and whiney if we aren’t catching anything. |

NICE...CATCH...PABLO!!! Man, the more Pablo posts I read, the more convinced I become that we’d probably be besties IRL. Into the same music, always on the same side of the fence in Chiefs debates, bass fishing, etc. You da man!!! Nice catch, dude!
