Amistad 5-2-21 - 05/03/21 05:37 PM

We had a chance to get out yesterday to do a little fishing. The day was 95° sunny and beautiful water temp was 73° still a little to chilly for me to jump in.
The fish were all active, we caught a variety of fish from longear to gaspergou, catfish, whitebass, lmb, and lots of smallies.
I think this is the tiniest longear ive ever caught.

We hadn't fished in 2 long weeks, it felt good to be back on the water. We caught 47 fish, i say we had a great time fishing and soaking in some sun. All fish were caught useing JIGLYF jigs and all were released to swim another day!
