Sunday On The Upper End

[rps]

Fished from daylight to 1:30 PM. Put 35 in the boat, all on top water. Most were largemouth, one smallmouth, and a few spots. Most were small but not all. Best five would have weighed near 14 pounds. Best one is pictured below with the Top Dollar I used to catch them all.

That is a nice fish, but the photograph is outstanding. The detail is great on the fish with the lure and net.....Whufta!

Thanks techo. The camera and not the operator is the key. One of the things drowned in last years rain was my digital Minolta. For Christmas my beautiful wife gave me a WATERPROOF Pentax Optio W10. It takes a great picture and uses a USB to link to my computer. To upload to the board I had to reduce the image 50%.

I fished sunday from 10-3. caught a mixed bag. ended up with probably 20 smallies all on a 5 inch brown slider, caught 6 whites on a spoon (they would surface for about 2-3 minutes and they were down, were only biting while up on top). Also caught 4 goggle eye and some really nice perch. we got rained on for about 1 hour in the middle of all that. great day on the lake i think the rain scared everyone home only saw a handful of boats.

The topwater bite was ON on Sunday. That was the best Memorial Day weekend I can remember. All of the boats usually shut it down. Caught 8 in about 2.5 hours of fishing all topwater, all kentuckies except the last one that I caught on my 3wt, 6' fly rod while targeting bluegill! What a hoot that was! I have never seen as many shad as I did Sunday morning, they were literally jumping up on the dock while I was putting the boat in.
