The Red

Hit the Red River this morning with Scott. Ended up with a handful of fish. Nothing to big, but all the fish were fat and healthy so there must be some bait coming through when they are generating. Best fish of the trip went about 6-6.5 lbs

Lake Hawkins Pickerel

Hit up Lake Hawkins this morning for some Pickerel fishing. Never caught a pickerel before but have always wanted to catch one. Rob Woodruff told me they either want a fly that is bright and shinny or a dark ugly fly. He notes it’s just a day by day preference with no correlation with water or weather conditions. I started the day off with the fly in the picture and picked several fish up fairly quickly.

 

Double Digits at the Double D

Me and my buddy Scott decided to hit a local tailwater Saturday morning for a little big fish mission. The results weren't all that great but it was kinda what we expected. A few big fish but not many. Scott ended up with the only striper of the trip, a nice 18 pound fish; which is his largest striper. Congrats man.

I ended up with a buffalo. Cool fish but they don't flight worth a flip.
