End of the Day Redemption

Despite all that blah-blah-blah I just wrote on my last post, getting skunked still stinks. When we got back, Marlon and I decided that we should hit ole' reliable and hook into some Lake Newport fighting fish!!! We tied on some of our popper frogs and hook into everything from crappie, small large mouth bass (I love that oxymoron), and the omnipresent bluegill. My final tally - 1 crappie, 12 bluegill and 1 LMB. Marlon had 2 LMBs and 1 HUGE BLUEGILL - this thing was almost as big as his head is round!!! I taught Marlon how to better cast the flyline instead of swinging it out and he did great! So I went out fishing three times on Saturday - not a bad way to spend a 70 degree, ridiculously sunny day.
