Serenity and Puzzle


The beginning of the puzzle

The finished product

Hello Jim, Patsy & all the rest of you that come visit this site. I thought this would be kind of interesting. Serenity is one of my great granddaughters. She will be 6 years old Nov 15th. She loves to work puzzles when she spends the night or comes here after school. I think her working this and completing it by herself is out standing. (of  course I think that, I’m her grandma )

The Drum Wiggler


This drum fish wouldnt stop wiggling long enough for me to take a better picture. it flipped and flopped until it bounced off the pier and back into the river.

Another Drum Fish


I have caught several of these drum or sheep heads I really wish someone could help me to figure out a way to make them not bite. They swallow the hook about half the time and any time i find my bait missing i think they are sucking it off.

Sheephead And My Shoe


I took a picture of this sheep head and my shoe just to show it wasnt a baby one.

Nothing Biting – The View


Not too much was biting here and i had the itch to take some pix.

its not so bad when the fish don’t bite i dont mind the view.

Northern Pike – Byron Boat launch


This one was fun to catch. I caught it on my first cast after putting on a yellow twister. Just flipped it about 10 feet from the dock then gave it a little wiggle and there he was. I had forgotten how fast they dart through the water once i set the hook. Its hard to believe how fast they can run. ? Swim ?

Small Mouth Bass – Byron Boat launch


I took this pix of myself and i think it turned out pretty good. its not that easy to take a picture and get myself in it. This is a pretty decent sized small mouth bass. I know there are alot bigger ones in other places but for fishing in the river in byron i think its above average size.
