2022 Aug 28-30 Bear Spring Camp

 We spent 3 nights at our favorite fishing camp and had a great time. The weather was tough— very hot and sunny during the day and the wind was a constant 10 mph which made boat control and casting a challenge. We had my brother George with us this year and this was his first experience at a fishing camp. The food was very good, and I think we all gained a couple of pounds! Here are just some of the fish we caught this trip.

We all caught at least 1 smallmouth but Frank got the biggest ones this trip.

And I saved the best for last. We come to this lake for the Pike. I was lucky enough to catch a 28”Pike this trip.

George caught a Pike too!

2022 Aug 13 - Maine Fishing

This trip we went deep and used our wacky worms in the weed beds. Still did not catch anything worth photographing except this one big bass.  I really do not know what to try next. Maybe a different lake!

When we were not fishing, I did see some ducks swimming by. I love the wildlife we see around the pond.

2022 July 30 Summer Fishing in Maine

 

Esther’s catch of the day

It has been a very hot summer this year. It is so hot the big fish have gone deep in the water and they are hard to find. This little bass was still in the shallows and that is what I caught!

At the end of the day, it is still lovely to sit in the screen house and watch the beautiful sunsets.

2022 June 10 - Fishing with my brother George

 We had a great weekend fishing with my brother George. I think we timed it just right this year in Maine because we caught a lot of bass, and the weather was fine. Too many pictures to post so here are some of the highlights.

Esther happy with her largemouth bass too

George with a smallmouth bass this time. They were few and far between this trip.

Notice George keeps smiling more and more as the days went by just having a great time.

Of course, Frank saved the best for last! Catching the biggest bass of the weekend!
