Tarpley's Pond, 3-24-20

After leaving Mudham (next post down), we hopped over to Tarpley's Pond. We call this place "SnoBalls", for a shaved ice shop that used to be there... Here's a couple of pics before we headed home...

Debbie caught a red breast, right away, on her micro rig... 

I had the zoom all the way in on this one, Debbie caught a nice black crappie down stream...



Mudham, 3-24-20

Debbie and I decided to roll over to fish Little River a bit today, at the Mudham road bridge. We climbed down through a pile of briars and such, and had a great time. Here's a few pics...

Debbie got the first catch with a beetle spin o her micro rig, a nice bluegill.

I picked up a chubby little bass on a rattle trap....

It's really a beautiful place!

 Looking downstream. I think we can float this area on the Jon boat, if we put it in upstream at Wendell. 

Debbie snatching in the black crappie!

Another black crappie on her Micro rig!

Glory Road, 2/18/20

The 4th and final stop on our fishing jaunt for the day, was the Glory Road bridge on Little River. It was getting late, and I basically wanted to see how high the water was, but Debbie had to grab a rod. Here's a black crappie she caught while we were there :-)


Airfield, 2-18-20

The third stop on our "Fishin Fix Tour" was a private spot we call "the Airfield". Debbie was casting a 5" YumDinger on a 2O hook, rigged weedless, on one of her Bullet rigs with 12lb mono. I was throwing a rattle trap on braid, on one of my Bullet rigs. Here's a few pics...




Amos, 2-18-20

After leaving Moccasin Creek (next post below), we stopped over at a private spot we call "Amos' Place". There was a fish kill in there last year, and mostly just small guys survived. Here's a couple we caught on beetle spins before we moved on to the next place...



Moccasin Creek, 2-18-20

We needed a "fishing fix", so Debbie and I took a little time today to hit a few of the local spots for a bit. First, we stopped in at the Moccasin Creek bridge. I caught the bass on a rattle trap, Debbie caught a bunch of black crappie on a beetle spin. Here's a few pics...

Airfield, 1-24-20

I hadn't been fishing in a while. Some family illness and personal business had kept us off the water recently. I stopped by the private spot we call "the Airfield" for a moment, cast a rattle trap, and pulled this guy in for a visit :-) It was cold and windy, but worth the stop!
