I was fishing shallow and trying out a chatterbait, when I caught three fish on three consecutive casts. They were up shallow in very muddy water after the rain. They were extremely aggressive, and the third of these fish was this 4lb largemouth.

Really tough bite on the water today. After a cold front and tons rain, the fish moved deeper and the water was extremely muddy. As a bank fisherman, these conditions made it difficult to find the fish. The weather was nice, so it was still great to be outside. Caught this crappie on a jerkbait, which seems to always elicit strikes.

Took my daughter out fishing on a little spillway pond off of Falls Lake. She caught several good sized bluegill, so we decided to throw one on a circle hook and drop it straight down under the dock. These fish have been known to not hit artificial lures, but they'll eat hotdogs, live bait, and catfish bait. After about 5 minutes of waiting, the line started screaming off the reel and the rod was bent over in half. We pulled in this beautiful 3.5 pound largemouth.

Absolutely crushing the buzzbait this night. Had a lot of huge blow ups which kept me on my toes. Had a blast!

Great outing fishing for catfish, bass, and crappie. Caught some great bass on a 10" worm, perch on nightcrawler, and several crappie on a live minnow. Bite was tough this day and had to work for every bite.

Had a really tough time getting bites, but found a small school of little bass and decided to throw a small underspin to see if a big one was around them. I caught one small bass, but it was definitely a tough day. Bluebird skies didn't help, but at least it was warm.
