Headed South to see how this cold front affected the gills. The day was a little cool in the morning and and was partly cloudy rest of the day. Last week there was alot of red dragon flies, and we caught lots of fish using red jigs. This week there was blue dragon flies and caught on blue jigs. Talk about matching the hatch.










This crappie came equipped with all the bells and whistles on it.

We also used yellow, pink, red, chart.










We kept 21 sunfish and 5 crappie. The rest were released to swim another day.

All fish caught on 1/32 "Static" JIGLYF jigs.

Nice variety of fish. Awesome job!

You guys look to have the makins for a fine fish fry. Nice job for sure.

Awesome day...Did you also catch the catfish & big bass on jigs ?

Thank you Chuck!

Yes sir i cant wait to have them wrapped up in a corn tortilla!!

Thanks Vogey and yes caught the catfish using 1/32 yellow jig head with a lavender body

And the bass on a 1/32 oz blue jig with silver body.

Them jigs are fish catchers for sure. Good job Gar 1970 and Pot Licker.



Side Note: How are your water bodies in the great southwest holding up?

Ok, all these Rio pictures are starting to make me mad One of these days I am going to have to get down there. Great pictures as usual. It looks like you had a really good trip.

Thanks Laker One! The rivers are looking sad. We need rain so very badly.

Thank you Osbornfishing. When you decide to let us know and we will point you in the right direction.

That is a nice offer. Thank you very much. I may take you up on it once it warms up again and we get past this COVID stuff. Of course if I come we need to beat Chuck’s All-tackle IGFA Rio World Record.

Lol!

There are a few Rios in the Canyon that can easily beat it for sure! Would love to see them HIDE !

Wow a few of the fish look like actual rock bass or what we called "red eye" growing up in Virginia. Had no idea we might have them here as they always seem to prefer cooler water. Awesome fish though. Biggun bass on little 1/32 jigs is impressive.
