    Default Snuck out!

    Traffic, Snowbirds, Work... UGGGH! Today was one of those days...

    Fortunately, God provides a remedy:



    The bluegill have some color! Even on a 3 MP cell phone:



    Snagging the bottom only to feel a good head shake is a bonus!



    There were potential shots at bass pics as well, but setting the hook is still a challenge....

    They appear to have some size as well as some color.

    Didn't all the snowbird go home this week? The greatest exodus since Moses every April 1 up I-95.

    That looks like it's good for whatever might bug you.

    They're thinning out. Unfortunately, they use the left hand lane to do so (ten mph below the speed limit).

    That is the species of the fish in the lower photo. It doesn't look like a bream to me. Is that some kind of tropical species?

    smij, what do you use to tempt those tilapia? The monsters in 9 mile/Cocoplum drive my nuts and I'd love to hook up one of those monster pale white ones.
