had a great day for largemouth today.the mommas are sharkin but extremly wary.I was re riggin my hook when an osprey slammed a fish not five feet from me with a giant splash.No wonder why the fish would scatter with the slightest ploop of the tackle hittin the water.Oh yeah,I was fishin the gravel pits in the stretch between truax and bryants,in case you were wondering...

Part of fishing for me is the adventure of exploration,and the joy of discovery.This is the reason I dont usually divulge exactly where my favorite fishing holes are,but,with the hints I drop ,one can look on a map and trace my route.If you want to get to know the area better I would suggest DeLORME Atlas and Gazetteer,pick it up at sporting/book shops for about twenty bucks. I will pm you with a sweet spot to get you fishin though!
