ust got back from a 3 day trip up in the Catskills with my girlfriend for our 1-year anniversary. We camped at Peace Valley Campground on the East Branch Delaware   :D. The E. Br. was freeeezing and the browns were not feeding much over the three days we were there but I was able to get a 19"er on Friday and she caught a 13"er Saturday, both on jerkbaits. We fished Pepacton on Saturday , trolled for 2 hours and caught a 14" brown at 7 colors and then went in towards shore for some smallmouth action due to the heat. 4 shorts and 2 keepers. All of the other fisherman I talked to were fishing saws and everyone was catching mostly smallmouth, some couldn't get a bite, and I only heard of one lost brown trolling from a kayak fisherman. Stopped by the Beaverkill on the way home yesterday and caught 2 small browns, and finished the day at Ashokan. 2 smallmouth trolling. After much experimentation, I was able to get a third rod out running a planer board with 2 colors of lead and so far no tangles  ;D .

Beautful fish and beautiful scenery no doubt. Happy anniversary! Before you know it, it will be 20 or 30 years like the rest of us.

Thanks guys.
A bit slow on Ashokan last night, but my friend and I still managed to get some fillets for dinner.
1 smallmouth & 2 white perch trolling.
5 white perch and 1 big pumpkinseed jigging.

Happy Fall everyone! My gf had an audition in NYC yesterday so I snook off for some fishing (of course!) and got this 14" largemouth at the Harlem Meer.

Slow day at Rondout, trolled 2, 7,8,& 9 colors and not a hit. Caught these 13.5&16" keepers while casting and my dad got three little throwbacks. Water temp was 65.

What kind of audition Gino if you don't mind me asking? Singing, acting?

Impressive!

I used to be a singer in a Rock N Roll garage band. But that was mainly because the drummer and I were the only once that could sing. LOL But the drummer Jim Gunn did end up being a drummer and lead back up singer for a county music star -- Conway Twitty.

Awesome taxid.

Slow morning on Ashokan. Trolled 2, 5 & 6 colors with a variety of spoons & plugs. One fat 14" yellow perch. The browns must have pre-spawn lockjaw!

Also here's a sweet sunset shot from my Wallkill R. Walleye expedition last night which proved unfruitful (still haven't managed to get one yet this year lol).

A 14 inch perch is nothing to sneeze at!

Went smallmouth fishing on Rondout tonight, 23" 4 pound chain pickerel. One 17" smallie and a short, and my dad got a short. All on Senkos.

I wish we had chain pickerel out here. I like they way they look and they are easy to paint. I'm going to have to catch one next time I am out east.

Nice pick! Did it put up a good fight? We had one about that size come 2’ out of the water on us last year trolling like a salmon. They get a lot of hate, but they tug well...

I remember they were great fun on tip ups in the winter when I lived out east.
