The BASS CAST

I took out of the launch for the regional.  It is a small 2 single lane ramps and little parking.  I headed up the river and hit a creek.  I had 3 blowups and put 2 keepers in the boat quick.  I marked this area for later.  

Then I hit another section and put a 3 pounder in the boat. I have been hitting some good fish but I have to go through so many bowfin to get them.  And they are so hard on the tackle.  Those things just tear up your stuff so bad.

I kept working up the river and found a few more areas that may pan out.  Today was high blue skies and pretty tough fishing.  But not for the mudfish.  I did manage to pull the lure away from a bunch before they hit it so that help but when you skip it up under some branches and they hit you don't know if it is a fish or junk.

The blue crabs are every where.  I actually caught one on a crank bait today.  I paused the lure and as it floated up he grabbed it and I pulled it in.  Man these little buggers are mean.  I tossed him in the livewell to show the Wife when I got back to the camper.  You can only imagine the feasco of me trying to grab that crab out of the livewell.  My fishing pliers are pretty short and I know how bad these guys can pinch so it took me a while to get him out.
