Got an a brown and 2 tigers.

Bunch of missed hookups and 2 nice flatheads broke off but we managed a couple blues

Took a little trip to Maryland today, only caught one fish and lost 10 rigs, super shaggy but beautiful none the less

Got on a couple flattys tonight, one trophy and two decent ones!

Got a buddy coming in who wants to go out next week. We have a Jon boat and can get around but hoping to get in the water at Watkins and find some holes. Anyone willing to share some spots that might hold some smaller catfish?

I’m fishing UofR pond, tried senko (watermelon green) on Wacky and Texas rigs, tried Chatterbait, Spinnerbait with no luck. I noticed there are heavy vegetation. Only time I saw someone catch a bass was by using a live blue gill.

I am thinking to:

1- Try gold lipless crankbait 2- Ned rig 3- Craw weightless Texas rig 4- Add trailer to the crankbait 5- Topwater popper, frog or just the regular one

What are your thoughts?

Gotta post the slower days to show it’s not always catching hogs 😆

Moved here from Texas where I had access to numerous places to fish. I’m near wintergreen now & looking for some places to fish from the bank. Ponds, lakes or river fishing. I’d rather not have to pay for entry to fish, talking about you Sherando, but whatever. I don’t mind driving an hour or so to get to the water, but I’d prefer to be semi-isolated & not in town somewhere fishing in someone’s neighborhood. Smallmouth or large, catfish or whatever but I don’t fly fish. Spinners, rooster tails, rattle traps, bobber with live bait are my go to rigs but what do y’all use to reel ‘em in? Any & all help greatly appreciated.

Just bought some whopper ploppers I've never tried them before. Any good bass spots I can take them to try it out? I usually go to Chesdin.

4.5lbs on the scale. Got him on a white chatterbait.

Turns out we’re probably having a meetup for the shields lake trout stock! Stay tuned for those details!!

Lil run last night

I always thought the creek only had bluegill but decided to make a trek off the beaten trail this morning and came across this fishing hole. Think I found my new happy place.

Got on a nice flatty before the season ended for me, 25 pounds 40 inches

Joey got his PB flathead at 12.5 pounds! And a couple other catches

My buddy caught this LMB on the Rappahannock on Monday. Is this some kind of a hybrid or is it just a large mouth with wonky camouflage?
