Been doing a lot of guide trips at night lately. Fishing has been hit or miss fishing docks or ledges.

I managed this 7lb 15oz hawg the other night while demonstrating a jigging spoon in 30ft of water over a ball of shad. Fish sure looked larger than it was, need to check my scale. Guess the timing could not have been better though - I'm not complaining.

We have been catching huge carp too, one the other night would have probably pushed 35-40lbs...took 30 mins to get in.

Happy July 4th to all.
