My wife's got family coming in from Holland this weekend, so between that and work, I'm stuck. However, I can contribute an idea or two. Reports have been good on carp at most of the reservoirs in the area. Folks have been catching them on the flats in the mornings and evenings. It's supposed to be a gorgeous day, relatively cool, so the smaller lakes should be good for gills and the occasional bass all day.
It is very tempting, especially after reading bluegills report. I would love to fish this weekend, butmy wife wants to spend some time with me. Bluegill with inlaws coming to town it sounds like a perfect day for fishing. Play it off like you want to have a fishfry for your family. Usually works for me.;)
Tried that. Didn't work:mrgreen:
I'ld be in bu the wife wants to go giggin' frogs tonight and I have a baseball game tomorrow morning at 9, playing in a wood bat league for my old highschool coach, boy wont that be fun!!!

I cant get my wife to go fishing with me, much less want to go frog giggin.
I can get my wife fly fishing, and we have thrown flies at bullfrogs when nothing else was taking, but I doubt I could get her out gigging either. Such a pity.
Go to any dam spillway and throw buggers along the rocks. You may be surprised at what you catch. Drum are fun!
Made it ti the dam at smithville Friday just after dark. They had the gates open. But my lantern wouldn't light. So I couldn't see anything. My headlamp battery died as soon as I got there. Next time ill be more prepared.
I live 5 minutes from the dam. Next time you head up there let me know!
Is your name really Steven Adler, or do you really like GnR? Next time I go, I will let you know. It was kind of a spur of the moment thing. Was there for maybe 30mins. spent the whole time trying to find a lighter to start the lantern. Others there were catching some. No one with fly rods.
I really wanted to go farther down into where the trees overhang the water, but I was being lazy.
Nope I had the name first! Steven AdlerQuote:
