Night crawlers are the universal FW bait, they will catch everything even the biggest bass and pickerel. In the summer when the fish get sluggish and only feed in the morning and at dusk, they will almost always hit a night crawler. Nice pics extremevisions.
This thing, by any standards, is huge!
Each lake has a # of trophy trout stocked for the beginning of the season.
A friend of mine got one a few weeks ago and sent the pic.
8lbs, next to the smaller one, for perspective,
You can also see how big it is by the size of his foot.
I am right there with him. I had to order a new waterproof digital camera since I dropped mine in the lake on vaca last year. I have been hitting the local lakes here on my yak. Been catching big pickerel, some small bass and large sunnies. It's been fun catching these species on my flies that I tie. Now that I have my new camera I will get some pics. I was smart this time and ordered a floating strap!
Here is a video on the water- no fish- just going over the yak.
