Caught 7 small ones today, 1.45lbs was the best and the others were around 1lbs and up. Caught 2 on the Dinger in Black and Blue early and then the rest on the swim n dinger watermelon red flake. Had to fish going towards Fells Cove because the wind was too much for where I have been going, left out of Lakefront Park, and it was much calmer towards Fells Cove.

Caught good numbers of fish but was only able to weigh in 5 keepers for 8.21 lbs. An 8+ pounder was weighed in by a competitor. Had to filter through the bites to find better fish. Offshore pepper grass was key using the skinny dipper on a 1/8 oz belly hook in 4/0 on 65 lb braid spiderwire.

Caught good numbers of fish but had to sort through the small ones to get 5 keeper fish. Ran the Skinny Dipper through the pepper grass to get all of our bites.

Got 3 today in about 2 hours fishing along the reeds in 3 to 5 feet of water. They were on the small size, lost a BIG one that wrapped me up and missed a few.

Went left out of Lakefront Park throwing a frog along and in the reeds with no luck, so I went with the Yum Swim n Dinger and got a bite on 3rd cast and caught the one pictured few cast later, 1.98lbs. Threw up into the reeds and he hit it just on the edge of the reeds, very faint bite. Caught another one later on down in the pepper grass about 1.50lbs.

I was slow-moving this bluegill near the edge of a lily pad cover. A bass struck from under the lily pads, came out in an arc, and struck the bluegill on his way back to cover.

Only had a couple hours to fish, started with a frog hoping to get a big bite, but after 30 minutes I only had one bite and he didn't get it all the way, so I switched to the Yum Swim n dinger and fished it along the edges of the reeds and got 12 little ones in the boat, the biggest at 1.60lbs. The best bite was right up against the reeds or just as it came out of the submerged pepper grass
