    Details: Channel Catfish

    Went out fishing this afternoon and got a ton of bites by large cats. Caught these two almost simultaneously, both measured at 23".

    Details: Largemouth Bass

    Went back to Mercer Lake yesterday afternoon. Mid 90's, mostly cloudy, light wind and water had slight stain. Didn't have a lot of time so went down to where ...more I could cast to stumps in 2-3fow. Cast beyond visible stump, working it slowly back, making sure to make contact with wood. Landed 1 and missed a few. Lots of fish chasing shad beyond where I could cast, about 30 yards out.

    Details: Largemouth Bass

    Hit lake Royal early this afternoon. Water was muddy so concentrated on laydowns in 2-3 fow. Cast beyond the laydowns and slowly twitched the worm back. Fish holding ...more extremely tight to cover so had to make contact with the wood to get bit. Got 5 in 90 minutes. Partly cloudy, light wind, 90 deg and lots of poison ivy.

      Thankfully I'm one of the lucky ones who can roll around in poison ivy and come away clean lol

    Lake Mercer (Burke was closest listed). Got out this morning before the rain. Worked skitter pop everywhere - deep, shallow, near cover and open water. Several blow ...more ups - most near submerged wood in 2-4 fow. Ended up with 2. The one in the pic was close to 6 I think. Worked a twitch twitch, short pause, twitch twitch, long pause. All bites came on long pause. Overcast, no wind, 70, stained.PB 4 VA

      @Dinow - Burke was just the closest on the list - it's actually from lake mercer - the area opposite the dam with the stumps

    Details: Largemouth Bass

    Went out to a local pond today hoping to catch a couple decent size large mouth, but only ended up catching this guy. It was about 85°F and the water was pretty ...more murky. I saw him around by the shore and I tossed my crank bait a couple feet from him and he attacked it when it went by him.

      That water looks pretty clear to me I might just be used to the brown pond waters near me because of all the flooding and rain

    Another catfish from last night

    No school today made last night a fishing night. Went out with @zach_2431 and tore it up on live blue Gil's. It was truly amazing to see how well this fishery ...more has recovered after everything did out 3 years ago from a chemical spill. Fish looks very healthy and fought like it was 3x its size. Over all the lake is a solid place to fish and the drainage stem holds a lot of big fish.
