I left Emalie snoozing in bed around 4am on Saturday.
By the time I was passing through Downtown Dallas it was raining and my joy was mixed with the worry that it would screw up my fishing...
I arrived in Athens about an hour and 45 minutes later and was pushing the john boat, sans motor, into the drink about 6:30.
I was fishing a boogle bug popper with a #12 Surveyor Nymph w/tungsten head and after that got lost I switched to a #12 Silver Lightning Bug.
Red Spot Sunfish on a psych prince
Gill Zilla
Nice Native Strain Bluegill
Wedged my self here
Caught fish there
Fed a gator...
Sunday Emalie and I visited the Folks and she caught some little bluegills in the neighborhood...

Beautiful! Was this Lake Athens or some private water?
ReplyDeleteNice fish!
ReplyDeletePretty fish, how do you know if the gills are native or not?
ReplyDeleteThose are some huge gills. Very nice fish!
ReplyDeleteGood Stuff but there is something wrong with that Gill Zilla man! Crazy Gator feeding, Glad Missouri don't have those, I like to wade fish to much!
ReplyDeleteNew to your site and love it! I am in Idaho and there was a time when we targeted big bluegill exclusively, fish to 10", nothing like what I saw in your neck of the woods. I target carp largely now, but really appreciate all the neat sunfish you have as well. Way cool!
