Finally... I caught some fish! Big river eyes 4/26/17
Fished 1030 to 12 last night. Gearing myself up for the upcoming sleeplessness many of us will endure for the next 8+ weeks.
Threw black blobs and plucked a couple eyes. First fish was ambitious. 19-20" eating a 7" blob. I respect the courage! Hour later switched to a diff blob and got smoked by a chunker. As soon as I connected I knew she was a piggy. Took my time and slid her up the bank. Hefty, likely post spawn judging by the belly. Taped at 27" on the button. Hooray beer! Felt good to get a couple respectable fish finally. Been on a smallie dink parade for like 3 weeks now. Here's the porn....

I've been hitting the bay mostly since April 1st. Couple nice fish to show for it. Did a lil nite reservoir outing which was slow and plucked a handful of dink smallies on the river. Last nite felt like a proper awakening. Red Bull stock IS going to go up... as is Duracell and energizer to power my head lamp!
I'm sure I'll see many of you in the weeks to come. It's gonna blow wide open with the heat wave coming!

Nice fish dude!! Fish like that make sleep deprivation worth it. I definitely need to do more night fishing this year.

Nice river walleyes! I find the river ones more exciting than sitting around in a boat on a lake trying to guess if there is a fish under you or not hah.
