The Weekend Report

[Leonard]

WOW...

What a weekend..

Tie flies by day (early mornings)... and hit the water in the afternoon and evening bit..

Friday..

Started about 5pm..

with a crankbait.. a couple of trout nice ones pushing 17-19incher..

But the fun is just starting..

switched over to a PMS jig and hit 3 big smallies.. a walleye 21inches and about a 18in white bass.... yes they are still there. But they a slowed way down on the big stuff.. they want it small!!

Saturday..

since the jig was still on I stayed with it for awhile... hook 2 fish but got off..

a couple a trout (maybe 4).. 2 more small walleyes (released)... I thought they were short.. about 16-17inches....

I guess the rule is:

16 inches on any Missouri "stream or river".. they look at Lake Taneycomo as a river.

Sunday after noon...

1 trout..LOL.. I think Im getting better at avoiding them...

5 BIG smallies on the PMS jig.. and 1 on a stickbait.

the BIGGEST was a 4 1/2lbs smallie... talk about a BRONZEBACK.. I wish I would have taking camera for this fish.. OH WELL stuff happens!!

there was 4 guys there and they all saw it..

oh yeah..

Also caught a 22-23in walleye that is in the freezer now...

total this weekend....

2 white bass..released

1 big ol'gar.. released

Less then 10 trout... released

and 2 walleyes in the freezer

I'll post a picture as soon as I load it...

NOTE TO SELF.....

Watch out where you step!!

I caught this on a PMS jig. I was fishing in outlet 1... toss out and let it set on the bottom for a coulpe of seconds... I lefted and thought I was hung up... then the line started to move.

I thought for sure I had a big carp on... well when it get close enough to see it I had to try to get it in.

this thing was hooked at almost the tip of the snout. I sure if he would have "rolled" it would have cut though the line... it took almost 5 minutes to land it..

WHO"S READY FOR A FISH FRY??
