My dad with a smallmouth buffalo that he (snagged) with a roadrunner head. The fish had the same dimensions as the one that I caught in the first picture.
Me posing with my first ever walleye caught on a yellow and orange leadhead jig tipped with a crawler.
My Uncle Dave with a channel cat caught on a red roadrunner head with a crawler.Black Otter Lake: A small lake next to our town had just recently drained all of the water out of it in an attempt to kill some invasive weeds. Fortunately, all of the fish are now concentrated in a small, very shallow puddle of water that is still fishable! My dad and I decided to go there after work (I had the day off) one day, and were pleasantly surprised with about 30 bluegills, some showing pretty good size! All of them put up a great fight. Quick word of advice for anyone that plans to go there is to watch were you decide to step, one wrong move, and you've just sunk into a foot and a half of mud. The rig that my dad and I were using is just a small #8 sized bait hook or jig, about 6 in. below a bobber. We weren't able to take any pictures, (except for on my dad's phone) because about halfway there, we realized, "Hey, we don't have a camera!" Tight Lines, and Good Fishin'
