Catch of the day

[JonM]

Another great day on the lake and a beautiful sunset.

[JonM]

I love that this lake is practically in my back yard. I get to fish there pretty much every week. It's not the easiest lake to fish, but it's peaceful and the scenery is beautiful. For a state park lake where the fish are really pressured, I'm just happy to get good bites when I can. Now that we're in the fall transition, we're in prime top water season. This guy was caught on a Whopper Plopper.

Topwater is the funest way to bass fish (in my opinion). That is amazing, you got it good....

[JonM]

Absolutely. I love topwater fishing more than any other method. Watching them explode on the surface is always a thrill.

[zenmic]

Nice, and it looks like more time in the kayak.

[JonM]

Yep. I love my Bonafide.

[JonM]

I didn't have my phone on me today, but I caught a nice 15" rainbow trout just outside of the ice on the lake on my new St. Croix ultralight / Shimano combo.

At Lake Havasu AZ getting ready for a tournament in a few days. Getting some nice fish while pre fishing so hoping it translates to a good tournament

Cheating with an old pic but....

Mrs Z holding up a salmon from Lake Michigan. Her dad owns/operates a charter, so we get lots of fun fishing in.

My son and I getting out a few days for Kokanee fishing. Caught this 7 lb landlocked Chinook as well. Nothing beats a day out on the water with your kids

[NONOBLITUS]

100 percent agree on Dad time.

[Secretweaponevan]

My first Brook Trout.
Caught on a $25.00 Goture Breeze 360 "tenkara"-style rod with kebari-style flies.
Caught 100' below the dam at Tobyhanna State Park, PA.
Casted into the same pool 40 times with no result, then this one bit.

[bellicose]

I love my tenkara. I'm in the process of making a leather sheath for it.

[zinger565]

Damn, beautiful fish

Finally got to fish a little bit this summer. I was shore fishing the St. Croix river last night and got a serious variety pack, and all on the same lure. A bluegill, bunch of small rock bass, a walleye, and on what was supposed to be my very last cast, a decent smallmouth. I ended up staying till dark after that.

Caught this guy over the weekend. It's the first bass I've caught on a fly. It's not huge, but it was fun to pull in on light tackle.

Them some toads, very nice

[Chuck E Ducky]

Daaaaaammmm. Nice catch!

[zinger565]

Thanks! It was a haul for sure, they both hooked up within a few minutes of each other, so we were pulling them in side-by-side. Took about 15-20 minutes to get them in.

[Tippster]

Been trying to catch Bowfin down here, always love catching Bullhead though!

A pretty good day today. I ended up catching about ten or so bluegill, one baby bass, and these two beauties. The largemouth weighed in at 2.25 lbs. and was caught on a jerkbait. The other guy was caught on a fly.
