TechniqueWacky RigsSeasonSummerStructureLaydownsNice hefty fella. Couldn't hardly get him in kayak, nearly bent my net handle. I love this weedless Owner #2 Sniper hook. Can't beat em for working the edge of laydowns. Limb snags happen, but much more rarely. This fish was lurking in a cedar treetop half submerged from Bank. Wanted to go back in. Fought to keep him out. This is my personal best so far. 20.50 inches.

TechniqueHard Topwater (Walking)SeasonFallStructureLaydownsTossing the Spook Boyo all day against the bank next to laydowns paid off. Caught a bunch of shorts, and a handful of quality fish. Water is low, and temps were around 54F. Fished before the cold front that moved in today. Air temps were nice, and it was partly clouded.
