Dad and I decided to hit the river and chase bass today. We got there a little after 7:00, with some nice cloud cover and decent temps. I was fly fishing, and he had a bait caster. I started with the usual, an olive crawfish pattern, and proceeded to fish it, and dang near everything else in my box for the next few hours with only 1 dink to show for my efforts. Meanwhile, dad was consistently catching the on soft plastics. After a while he decided to go take a break, so I took his rod and fished a few holes before calling it quits. I guess I should have taken my bait caster instead of the long rod today, because within 10 minutes this heathy fish slams a crawfish.



A few minutes later I get another solid hit as soon as my bait hits the water, which ended up being a decent fish.



All-in-all, no complaints about the day. We had beautiful weather, and the fish did cooperate as long as you had what they wanted. Wish I could have stuck a pig on the fly, but that's the way it goes sometimes.

Thanks. To add to the frustration, it seems as though my Life Proof case isn't so life proof anymore. No sound emitting from my phone anymore.

Put the fone in the sun. Let it bake.

Rice and sun seem to have done the trick, my phone is now un-jacked. Gonna file a claim with life proof to get a new case, though.

Some nice fish, sorry you didn't have better results on the fly but you guys got some nice fish to the gunwhales.
