pondfisher Posted November 15, 2016 Report Posted November 15, 2016 Haven't posted in a while but thought I'd share a few pics from some summer and early fall fresh and salt work. Summer rain spillway bass (The heavy summer rains created a non-stop bass bite for light weight fly action at the spillways). Late summer meat trip (Misc. bag-o-meat to keep the freezer stocked). Early fall false albacore (My favorite time of year... the speedsters return to the bay and rip off a hundred yards of your backing in 10 seconds!). Early fall false albacore (If the bay anchovies are there, they will come in mass). Scum pond jurassic bluegills (Some of our local retention ponds have monster bluegills. Just don't eat them!). Scum pond jurassic bluegills (Too bad you can't eat them because some of these slabs would give you two big sandwiches). Scum pond jurassic bluegills (These slab gills fight hard on a 3 and 4 wt. fly rod). Spanish Macks (Early fall means spanish macks off the beach and drag screaming fun. Then onto the smoker). Spanish Macks (Tons of meat for the smoker in preparation for Raquel's famous fish spread. It's GOOD!).
whichwaysup Posted November 17, 2016 Report Posted November 17, 2016 Pondfisher - great pics. Makes me miss FL. Those jurassic 'gills would be a blast on a 4wt.
Capt. Troy Posted November 17, 2016 Report Posted November 17, 2016 I used to want to fish with him until I saw him standing up to his neck in 60 degree water

Troy said: I used to want to fish with him until I saw him standing up to his neck in 60 degree water I thought it was the right thing to do, i.e. get out of the boat in order to shake the legend's hand. And besides, the water was only up to my chest.
MPFit Posted November 21, 2016 Report Posted November 21, 2016 Looks like a blast! Are those Howler Bros shirts? I got one of their Matagorda shirts- it's fantastic.

Light weight, very cool, super good construction, pearl snaps instead of buttons, giant front pockets, etc.
MPFit Posted November 24, 2016 Report Posted November 24, 2016 I got those matagordas on an online sale and I don't wear any other brand (occasional Columbia). I'm gonna get a pescador to see how I like em!
