F is for Fishing

I caught a break between rain showers in the late afternoon, so I took my baitcaster with a spinnerbait tied on down to a local pond to see if anything was interested.

I realized that my two light rods are both gold colored, so it somehow made sense to put them head to head- at the local pond. I ran a rooster tail on my older rod, and a paddletail swimbait on a jig head on the travel rod from Temu, and they both performed today.

It was overcast and gloomy, so naturally, that meant it was a good time to throw a whopper plopper! I got good results when I tried popping the bait a few times before retrieving. Since I got most of the action in the first few minutes of my short outing, this video is almost completely uncut.

I tried my $30 fishing kit from Temu at a local creek, using the smallest lure in the kit, and managed to catch five different species in under a half hour- including a redfin pickerel- a species of pickerel I've never seen in my area before!

I spotted a ~$30 fishing kit on Temu, with a telescoping travel rod, reel, light line, a few spoons, jig heads, small soft swimbaits, and a handful of hardbaits. I took it as a challenge to see what I could catch with this kit and if it seemed worthwhile.

Had a few minutes between errands on Labor day, so I grabbed one rod and chased a few panfish before firing up the grill.

Fall transition is here, and the bass are feeding up- meaning it's time to start putting jerkbaits in the mix, and the topwater bite should still be on.

This is my third attempt to catch a bass on a home-made lure made out of a rubber baby that a pro-life group was handing out a few weeks ago. Of course,I took it as a challenge to see if I could catch a bass on it...

I stopped at the river between errands, hoping to get a shot at a smallmouth bass- which led me into a short session dissecting the current patterns and thinking about where the fish might be hiding.

I was hoping for a topwater bite this evening, but it just wasn't happening, so the way to salvage the trip was to switch to a texas rig with a 7-inch curly-tailed worm.

I hit a nice variety of fish around a local spillway- both bass and sunfish. both above and below the spillway on a couple of different lure types.

When your kids come home with weird items- like a rubber fetus, what do you do? Turn it into a bass lure of course... but will it catch bass? Watch and see if my experimental (emphasis on mental) lure can get the job done, or do I need to rethink this...

Threw around the Micro Spinner lure that came in my last mystery tackle box to see what it could do at the "little pond" where I've been hitting a lot of crappie lately.

Tried a few different baits at the river chasing after smallmouth, then at the pond chasing largemouth. The bait that got the day going was a micro-sized lipless crankbait that was surprisingly easy to use and more effective than I thought it would be.

Today i returned to the pot I like to call the "little pond" (even though it isn't actually little) and threw a few rooster tails...

I had to run over to see my mechanic this afternoon, and fortunately, there is a nice creek near his shop, so I couldn't pass up the opportunity for an adventure in creek fishing.

I caught several species at a small neighborhood pond using rooster tails and a whopper plopper. This pond has come a long way in a year- last year I never caught a Bass large than maybe 6 inches here, this year I am getting much bigger ones, and today were my first topwater catches here.

Because it's good for you, you should go fishing when you can.... so I took the opportunity to make a stop at one of the local ponds between errands today, and tried out a bass jig with a craw trailer.

I went down to an area with an active spillway near an old mill, and threw some rooster tails and a small whopper plopper 60, for a few good hits and some good misses too!

Last day of the month, and I did a little panfishing before work at a nearby pond using a few different lures (a mini dropshot, a 1/8 oz rooster tail, and a 1/16 oz rooster tail) For photos and short clips, follow me on instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/f.is.for.fishing/ Follow me on Fishbrain for more catch details: https://fishbrain.com/anglers/vespo27 Follow my Full videos on Rumble: https://rumble.com/FisforFishing Follow on Youtube for Highlight Shorts and Select full videos: https://www.youtube.com/@FisForFishing27 Follow on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/F.is.4.Fishing/

Chain Pickerel always seem to get very aggressive with topwater lures- then have crazy energy while being landed and handled.
