That's pretty cool. I didn't know you could do that with the Dragonfly. I've really got to read the directions.Went fishing at Lake Quinsigamond this morning. Wanted to see how the DownScan screenshots would come out. Second shot is one of the I290 bridge pilings.

Success! Fished Dug Pond by Natick HS this morning.
This here is my first Bass ever and my first fish in 15 or 16 years. Felt weight by hand, best guess was around 2 lbs.
Also caught around half a dozen blue gills of various sizes and a small, small mouth bass.

5lbs on the money.

Took a friend of mine going through some BS out fishing trying to get his mind off things. We had more luck at Dug Pond in Natick. Two large mouth, one small mouth and a couple assorted sunfish.
I'm still trying to figure out the Texas rig. thinking I might need to switch from mono to braid and use a lighter weight.

Thank you. That seems to match the description. Seems these fish like deep water and I was only in 20-30 feet, explain why i haven't caught this before there.
That's pretty cool. I came face-to-face with one while snorkeling in Maui. It came out of nowhere. Pretty spooky looking fish. Now I know why they told us not to wear jewelry or wedding bands while diving. They will take your finger right off.
Awesome!!!
I was fishing in the kayak after supper last night not having much luck, I caught a couple of small bass and a crappy but really not what I was looking for. I decided to stay after dark because the night was warm the water was like glass. I was rewarded with this beauty at about 8:30 and even caught a few more smaller fish also.
Nice job Bob.
The past few years I've had Albies on the brain but never had the chance to go for them and couldn't reachthem from shore. I got a last minute call Wednesday to go out Thursday AM looking for them. We found them and a ton of them. If your like me and love the sound of drag screaming and fighting fish I can't recommend enough putting in the time to find them. Anyone looking for a great affordable charter guy PM me, I'll give you some info. This one was my first ever Albie ,just shy of 12# ! I'm told that is a big albie as they usually average 7-8# or so..I understand why people get "addicted" to catching these fish.

Since I haven't seen anyone post a pic of one here yet, here's a Sea Robin from the surf this morning. Caught half a dozen the past few days on epoxy jigs.
Those sea robins creep me out when the chirp and squeak making noise as you unhook them...!
Been finding some early season tog.
Can't wait to hit to hit it tomorrow
Those are some good size fish for this time of year!

Went fishing in Lake Murray SC on vacation last week. I caught nothing except for a tree and a couple sticks.
My wife, who has told me that fishing is boring and she didn't want to try, finally came around. She caught her first ever fish. My 5' ultra light is now "her" rod. Guess I can use this as an excuse to buy another ultra light and a medium heavy rig?

I'll bring the crabs if you want a hand!
