Hey all, did some fishing with big rideau basser, simon and uglystick9. We did very well. Cam(uglystick) started things off with this bucketmouth. I finally brought the scale and camera :P

Image

He got it on a wacky rigged senko. Sorry about the blacked out background...we swore to secrecy on the spot but a clue that is ovious because bass are not open yet and it was not on the ottawa river.

A little competition started and I hooked my PB largemouth :P Great fight on my 5wt flyrod.

Image

Caught it on an olive crystal bugger. If you are wondering why i'm not smiling we have 2 pics and I look much better not smiling than I do smliling like an idiot :oops:

Good job on the PB!!You win this time uglystick!! :twisted: He landed it on a medium action uglystick too it was bent pretty far over!!

a great time and I can't wait to get back there for some more bass.

If you're going to end up vandilizing the picture, why not pick a nice plain background ehwn you first take the picture instead. That black sketching is just foolish.

Keep using the scale you have. A good scale is going to cost you a few dollars. Besides, the one you have is going to make you feel like a champ everytime you use it. :lol:

Hey, yungflyfisher, don't listen to any of the negative comments! Nice fish period!!! And the fact that you’re a fly fisherman instead of using 65lb power pro on a heavy stick, good for you!
Keep it up young fella, great to see!

WOW i'm getting a lot of luck lately....caught my first muskie today :D Olive crystal wooly bugger strikes again. Only a baby 2-3 lbs but beautiful colurs and a great fight on my 5 weight. It jumped straight out of the air twice. Also caught 2 small walleye and around 15 small bass. This was on the mississippi river at the galetta dam. Went to take a picture and he slipped out of my hands and into the water. Oh well, a nice rush even though it was just a baby.
