![]() Took a ride after work to Skunksville Tuesday hoping for an eye. Started poking around some spring spots that have produced for me in past years and connected with a fat healthy 23". I was psyched, that fish made my day! Single spots rarely produce multiple fish for me at Monks so once I catch, I leave in hopes the spot will reload for later. So I shoot the Mugger up the lake to fish a point I never tried. Typical Skunksville results there so now it's time to head back to the snag I got that 23" off. En route I pass a drop off and my electric fish liar is showing life. I stop and drop, BAM! Another 23"!Pass over the drop again, BAM! a 20"ish...Quickly CPR'd, drop back down BAM! A 22"!!! Shaking in disbelief a circle back around, drop down..jig, jig, jig...BAM! another 20"ish..haha...no, this can't be Monks!!!!! It's getting dark, make a couple more passes, jig, jig, jig WHAM!!!!! A 26"+ fat pig, huge head, big belly, angry face! Def the heaviest eye I ever caught, wish I had a scale. What a kicker fish. 6 healthy eyes in a couple hours on Monks!! Still in disbelief.
So of course I tell my buddy to blow off any plans, the bite is on and we have to go back the next day(yesterday). We caught shit!!! Nothing!, Not even a bite!!! I don't know what was going on at that place Tuesday evening, but I hope i get to experience it again. Here's the porn with photoshopped backgrounds from pics I grabbed off google image. Cant let that cat outta the bag. The last fish is the pig. All fish CPR'd. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()
