Went to the house Weds and stayed till Sat. The guys were going after Dove and I was after the smallies. Pretty good numbers again this time out but was able to get some better size. Went out 4 times and used power bait pumpkinseed 3" grubs on a spinner jig head, a 6 inch texas ribbed purple robo fat worm with 1/4" tungsten weight, albino 4" zoom fluke with 1/4" jig head and my favorite square bill crank bait. My brother was using grubs on a jig head and rooster tails mostly.

I caught about 30 fish total, but best sized posted here:

Found a nice honey hole that produced my biggest LMB on the river yet. We always start on the opposite side of this spot, but i decided to hit it at 6pm Thurs, and it was on fire. The first 4 fish below were all caught there in a 20 min span. Big LMB hit the robo worm. The rest were on the square bill.

If anybody knows a good roofer and electrician send them my way please. We are exactly between Blythe and Parker AZ on the 95.

Need a new roof by Nov, and need to convert some outlets to 220 for new air conditioners

Another great river trip!

Not busy at all. Strangely quiet actually.

Here's a video of a serenade I received from the local coyotes as well
