Default Pike, smallie and big crappie - 6/22

Hit the P after work and fished from 5:45 - 8ish. Same old story first hour or so - no swipes or hits or anything. Finally got a good swipe near a large deadfall. Repeated casts drew no more attention. I eventually had enough and switched to a small grub. A large, slow bend in the river gave up 4 yellow perch, 2 lmb, a few bluegills, a smallmouth and 2 crappie one of which was a 13". On the long trek back thru the jungle, I stopped and caught a small pike. Not bad but pike actio is still painfully slow at least where I'm going.

There were bootprints and evidence of a kayak. Looked like someone was
stopping along the shore here and there and fishing from shore at spots where the bank wasn't 10 feet high. Prints were fairly fresh too. I think JDTuna has invaded my territory. Time to call the banners and come to the aid of House Buzzbaiter. Release the ravens!


If anyone wants some extra cash, I'll pay somebody to machete a path along the river for me. Weeds are getting over my head. I swear one day I'm going to step into uprooted tree root hole hidden by weeds and they'll never find me.
