Ray Hubbard Friday mid afternoon

Got out 11am to 2pm with a 45 mins rain delay at noon. Saw birds working at RP right of the bat but they were mostly rat 8" sandies, only a couple keepers. After the rain same birds and same schools were working so decided to investigate nearby structures. BAM! Marked the mother loads of magnums, catching almost on every cast for 1.5 hr. A legal hibbie and a short hibbie back to back were in the mix. No kitties, no drum, no crappie and amazingly NO YELLOW BASS!! LOL. All fish released except the legal hybrid that inhaled my mepps and gill hooked badly.

All caught on my hand crafted "SPT #4 mepps." Catching depth was 15 to 20 fow, wind 8 to 12 mph EAST. Water temp 83f. Air temp felt great only in the 80s for hot August?!! No SPT heat stroke today, Larry, Gene and Dennis! LOL

Few fun pics for the fun fishing community....


PS: Just got back from a 10 day vaca to the cooler upper upper Northeast : Boston, Maine, Niagara Falls, and Toronto. First timer there. Did the lobster catching trip and oyster farm tour trip. Only caught one pretty striper in the pic below LOL.

Oh forgot to mention the 16.5 inch mag measured in the pic tied my PB for the home lake. My PB sandie is 17.25" caught at Twok

Man Todd! Great graph shots and awesome catching buddy. Awesome to here u are getting them on the homemade mepps as well, little jealous about that. Might need to get one from ya next time I see ya out there! Looks like a great trip up north and good eating as well! Haven't been out lately myself with school kicking in here, need to go soon......

Nick, holler at me out on the lake or come over to the house or meet up. I bet you will like these better because it's slightly heavier and sinks faster. I experimented with many weighs and got the optimal weigh with ease blade spinning.

Larry pouted all day from lack of fishing here! Glad you had a great trip, your trip looked like a great time, glad to have you home safe!

You sure did find the motherload! Nice graph shot btw

I'll hit ya up soon Todd once the craziness of school starting wears down and I'm back in the swing of things.

That grass shuttle get you excited! Great day on the water tide. Let's get out there soon!

The pics come thru Todd. Great catching and I enjoyed your vacation pics.

They know how to eat sea food up North. Looks delicious.
Your Hubbard trip was great.

You're living the dream, SPT ! Good times from the W'ford boys.

Thanks, Greg and guys! It was a bless day for sure for August.

nice fish!

Love those graph shots Todd. I have not been on Hubbard in months. Going to try it in the morning

Awesome post.
