'24 wrap up

[Esox Luciano]

Another year in the books...with many pages to still fill. I'd say this past year's fishing adventures were less aggressive & more about comfort. That being said, I still wind up putting in a decent amount of work to get some good bites. Most pike this year were exclusively on my homemade wooden jerbait. Once the temp gets too hot I've been staying away from the river and trying to be more cool & comfortable. The river's given up some surprisingly hearty Larry & Molly action as well though. I've found ways to access new points on the river and seems like awesome locations/conditions. Besides all the usual suspects the brighter highlights of my past year angling has been hanging out with and helping & watching my younger cousins catch fish. More so with the watching cause it's awesome to see a youngster in a battle with a biggun! Pure entertainment! As far as fish go, here's 2 of each of theirs & some of mine from the year. Not sure if anyone is doing a "Best Of" this year thread, but feel free to post em' up here. Happy Holidays !!!!

As i get older but not necessary wiser I too would rather watch other people catch than me. Keep keeping on. And yes climate change sucks. Glad I will be dead before the real effects are felt.

Solid catches all around. Unfortunately 2024 is the year I fished the least. Got myself involved in a huge house renovation for myself and my family. It will be worth it in the long run. Definitely looking forward to more fishing in 2025.
TIGHT LINEZ!!! :D
