Chrisfishd and I hit the Q Last Night
« on: Jul 30, 2016, 05:07 PM »
The conditions looked good and with no moon out, we took the walk and fished Quabbin last night. It was Sept. of 2015 when I last fished the Q with Chris and this time I did not break any ribs! The fishing was good with some healthy smallmouth stealing the show with their acrobatic hits and fights! No trophies by Q standards, but all nice fish! I started the night with a Whopper Plopper 130 and was happy with the hits and the distance, but I dropped a few fish that I felt I should not have... After it sailed away (finders keepers) when a bail popped, I switched to a Savage Panic Prey. It was a little lighter but more streamlined and I think (it was very dark) I got more distance and I no longer dropped any fish... It is also half the price... I would still be using the Jitterbug, but I know I will/am getting more fish with the added distance I can get with a lure like the Panic Prey...
Here are a couple pics from last night, I would post more but the flash on Chris phone was down right painful and my usual "flash squint" is just more than I am willing to share!

Nice bass!  Obviously they are not feeling the heat like us humans.
Everyone believes in something.  I believe I'll go fishing.

Friday night no real rain, but it was so humid and at one point foggy, it might as well been raining... At times there was a breeze, but most of the time it was flat. Did not seem to make any difference to the bite though...

Glad to see you guys getting out and catching. Hopefully life will slow down enough for me to get out this week.

Formerly chrisfishd, it's just Yachtzy now.

It was a good time, one of the most peaceful and relaxing places on Earth at night. I enjoy the loons and owls talking allnight.

I can't wait to go back, just has to be a Friday or Saturday night, let me know I'm game.

You need a free permit to fish at night on the Q...

I wasn't aware of that! Good to know. I would love to try night fishing there sometime.
