Pike and Bass

[NickM221]

I haven't gotten out to fish as much as I'd like to, as I've recently started my first real job out of college. Atleast the time I've had has been pretty productive.

I decided to change things up this summer and have been almost exclusively fly fishing with self tied flies and fishing top water. Pike on top water is absolutely insane.

Visited my friends "lake house" on a creek in upstate NY. Managed to catch a bunch of smallies this size.



Fly fishing has led to some interesting catches... Fat brown bullhead on a popper, golden shiners and other panfish, and some decent bass.

I've been hitting the river from kayak and shore. Got into a few decent schools of crappie and some nice pike.

I'm not really a fan of blurring the pictures, but there were some landmarks in the back so I didn't have much of a choice sorry

I'm pretty sure that I've caught the third pike before, as I caught a pike missing the same front fin in the same area of the river last year. I need to go back and see if I've still got the old picture.
