18 Fish This Morning…!
On board today, I had the pleasure of fishing with Ger Khang, a well-known angler that fishes both fresh and salt, and has won bass tournaments. Our target this morning was largemouth bass. We got a few nice ones with our biggest over five pounds, along with a mix of pickerel and crappie. We also had a perch and a trout chase our tackle. We fished three ponds on the South Shore of Massachusetts and ended up with eighteen (18) catch and release fish. Not a bad morning…!
We fished a variety of tackle including buzz jets, bico jigs, senkos, rapala stick baits, nitros, rubber frogs, rubber worms, among others. We had many other hits throughout the morning and lost some nice fish at the bait that threw the hooks in a shower of water. Very exciting stuff!
I have two spring dates left for largemouth bass charters. If you want to go, give me a call. I’ll put you on the fish!

Lovely Morning, Slow LM Fishing
Had the pleasure of guiding angler, Peter Fallon, this morning for largemouth bass on Massachusetts South Shore. It was foggy at first light and dead calm. Peter fished fly and LT. We had a total of seven rises. I expected double that, but for some reason, the big fish were not in tight to the brush. Here are a few pics from our morning on the water. Amazingly beautiful!
