For Week Ending Sunday, Aug. 23, 2020


Tuesday, Aug. 18 (from Skip)...
Received a note earlier today, telling me that he had gotten "a wild hair" and decided to go see if he could catch a few fish. Turns out that he did find three, the biggest of which is pictured here.







Tuesday, Aug. 18 (from Ron)...Fished Beggars Bridge area this evening. Had two hits and landed only one at 1-6. Not sure what was going on, but they were not interested in what I was throwing. At least no thunderstorms and no skunk, but it was close.



Wednesday, Aug. 19 (from Ron)...Another squeaker to avoid a skunk. Fished upper West Neck (lauching at Indian River Road) from 5:30 to 8 p.m. and had one that I lost and one dink. Not sure what is going on, but they are not biting well for me. Sure was a beautiful evening, though.

Thursday, Aug. 20 (from Ron)...Fished an old honey hole that should have held some better bass. Caught four, with the best a 2-1, but the bite was slow. Weather was great again and sure beats the last two trips of only one bass. The fish I caught represented a "little" bit of everything size-wise.

Friday, Aug. 21 (from Ron)...Fished Oakum Creek for a couple hours this evening. Had a few very small taps on the plastics (sunfish maybe?) but no hookups. After an hour or so, caught one bowfin on a Zoom U-Vibe worm, and that was the sum of it. Threw a variety of lures, but the bite was non-existent. At least, it was another beautiful evening and no skunk! Happy enough with my bowfin.

Saturday, Aug. 22 (from Ron)...Fished Blackwater this morning. The bite was intermittent, but not too bad. Caught eight bass with a couple about 1-10. Used a variety of topwater and plastics. Surprised to get a decent crappie on a SwimSenko.
