A cold fall day on the water today. The wind has been up so I left the fly rod at home and brought along the Whuppin' Stick,
hoping to find some carp or catfish feeding in deeper waters. I must
admit that I am a novice at baitfishing. I know that sounds odd - put
some tasty morsel on a hook, throw it in the water, wait until something
eats it ... how hard can it be? Well, I spent most of my day losing
tackle on submerged rocks and trees and feeding hot dog slices to hungry
turtles. I guess I need to do some more reading on the subject.
Not
to be left fishless, I decided to tie on a popper and look for bass on
my way back to the car. I love fishing top water lures like this because
it reminds me of fishing for ulua in Hawaii. Plus, it usually catches fish:
