    Citation

    Went fishing back on June 24th in a private lake and caught my first citation. Unfortunately, the citation was not a bass, but a bowfin. The weighed in at 9.75 pounds and was just over 31 inches long. A Virginia citation for this fish is either 10lbs or 30 inches long, so I barely missed the...

    One last trip of 2011

    I wanted to get the boat on the water one last time in 2011 so I went out on Friday. Water temps ranged from 47.7-49.5 and air temps were in the low 40s to mid 60s by the time I headed in. I didn't have any luck. I had a couple of bites on a jig and on a crankbait, but I couldn't figure...

    Lake Cahoon

    My dad and I headed to Lake Cahoon in Suffolk, VA this morning hoping for a great day of fishing. Water temps were around 75 and we fished in water from 2 to 16 feet of water. We couldn't find a pattern. My dad landed the first fish on my boat and she was a chunky 3 and a half pounder on an...

    Got this in the mail yesterday!

    Received my new BYOB lure from Jim yesterday in the mail, for the April give away. Let me say that I love this lure already. The paint scheme on it is great. I can see myself purchasing a few more of these in the future. Especially since I lost one of my others from Matt last weekend.

    Said goodbye to the family dog today

    Unfortunately my dog's health had continued to decline in recent months and my parents decided that it was time. Hershey turned 13 last November and still never showed and age in her face, just a few white hairs. She has been around since I was in the 6th grade, over half of my life. She was...
