BizCT Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Only a branch, some fishing line, and a sinker (which I disposed of the in the trash can). Same as last fall, I didn’t even have a bite on the jigs. Nobody else was fishing, but a guy walking a dog said that bloodworms work good for bait, but to watch out for the eels and catfish. My lifetime record, of zero fish of any kind caught in the Hudson, remains intact. There were lots of Canada geese around and some young ones are hatched. A sign on the docks said to beware of tics. It was a bit cool out there at sunrise, I should have brought a warmer shirt or a light jacket. That’s my pier spot!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably his. Last year he donated probably 50 bucks worth of gear to that spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loworange88 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Hey everyone! I took my 9 year old out for the second time so far, and he was hammering the rock bass on Oneida. He also managed to get a decent bullhead out from under the docks. He for sure out fishes me, he’s also comfortable taking most of the fish off the hook and putting them back in the water. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rachunter Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 They where real picky this morning. There was a whitish fly with two long tails popping out of the water. Once I picked the right fly the where inhaling it. Stopped by the brown trout area but it was a dude.

Usually tied with a cream to brown body . I have never seen or tied them with a green or gray body. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
