Biscuit Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 They must fish the Fox River, I have yet to make it there but would like to give it a shot. I hear it is pretty good for smallies. I do most of my smallie fishing in Canada and Fish for largies around here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pop Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 Mac10, good idea. Going to give the split shot a try for some small crappie jigs. Pop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bterrill Posted December 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2007 Last weeks results B Thanks again for the help. I like the idea of using the sharpie, Jonn. I'll be stealing that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac10 Posted December 26, 2007 Report Share Posted December 26, 2007 Just a thought, might be good to hang the lure on the fish's mouth toward the camera. Fantastic fish and very good pictures!!! Thanks!!! Not only does it show your fans what you used, but also documents the lures used for yourself...... Good fishing, Mac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigTimeBuzzer Posted December 26, 2007 Report Share Posted December 26, 2007 Those are some nice smallies...You should be proud of your efforts when it comes to tying....There is nothing like catching a big smallie on a fly you made yourself. I can tell by the snow that the water is probably a little cool too...lol. Mac mentioned the pic with the jig in it's mouth, that's a good idea and here is another for you to try. Try taking one when they leave the water on one of their spectacular jumps. It took us forever to get one that you could see with the smallie airbourne and you can see the float against the sky plain as day. Needless to say it takes two to make this happen...lol. Unless you are a Octopus....lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bterrill Posted December 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Good idea for a shot BTBzr, they don't do much of a jump at 36F. As much as I'd like that shot myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
