Catch of the day [Fishing]

[Graeme]

@Giles given your recent run-in with the Orcas, are you planning on installing one of these on Sakura?

[Giles]

Nope, I'm happy to be attacked....

[Graeme]

I've never seen any Orcas in the wild, I'm hoping to get the chance when I visit Orkney and Shetland this summer. But I'm not sure I'd be so enthusiastic if they were trying to sink me!

From the Oman 22 archives - nice bandage

That smile 🥰says it all. Great pics, G.

topwater fishing is my favorite way to fish @Giles. is that a Yo-Zuri plug?

The bass have been in the lilly pads here hiding from the heat, and tossing the SPro frog over top have proven successful for big bass.

Oh yes G!!! This is indeed the life!! Heading out myself in a few days to fly fish the Wind River Range of Wyoming. On the hunt for golden trout!!!

[Giles]

Best of luck.....

A Xorus Patchinko 85, a really brilliant topwater lure....

First time fishing since I was about 9y/o, this was the catch of the day….

[Giles]

That'll do nicely.....

Beautiful canoe @Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot smallmouth bass are my favorite fish to catch. They fight extremely hard for their size. Nice catch!

[Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot]

Thanks guys! Just bought my first property, it’s on a beautiful lake - figured it’s a good time to take up fishing. The sellers wanted to keep the cedar strip canoe, but I insisted it belonged here

[jordanscollected]

Where are you located fishing Smallie's @Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot ?

[Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot]

Wolfe Lake, South Frontenac, Ontario.

[jordanscollected]

I've spent a lot of time smallmouth fishing in Ontario, near Lac Seul.

We crushed em on Topwaters called Tiny Torpedo's
