"Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!"
If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1) And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1) Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT? PB answer: It depends.

Al airborne hybrids aren't scared of steel traps. All the traps will do is slow you down as you try to escape the attack.

Al, where can you buy those swimming spoons? They would work great in tidal water. Looks like a eel coming through the water.

Looks almost like a pipe clamp strap cut in half with a hook soldered to it.

I have several large ones that are used on striped bass but they are very large and a booger to throw. They work on large bass well but in my shape, I can not use them now. The smaller ones will work great where there are eels. Bass hate eels worse then anything in this area. Bait stores sell live eels here and they work great on bass and all cats.

Tbar thanks for the link. The ones I found here were more like spoons. Either way, the wobble heads are really nice in clearer water when you want some movement, but not a lot of noise.
I bet that wobblehead/boot tail combo really has some great action.

Thanks,Tbar and Al. The baby eels come into tidal water in the spring and that will be a crackerjack bait then.

This is the first CB LMB that I've caught since stocking back on May 29th at 2 1/4" long. It was caught on a 4 1/2" baby bass colored fluke with metal flake. This CB LMB was 10 3/4" long in just shy of 4 months. The LMB is pale, but had a distinct turquoise blue spot on top of it's head between her eyes. I thought this was an incredible growth rate in less than four months. I've noticed an incredible decrease in the amount of FHM, Gambusia, and Golden Shiners in my BOW as of late. I feel at that rate, they may be gone by winter time.
...when in doubt...set the hook...

TBAR, good looking fish. I guess I'll have to buy some wobble heads. Of course, in my 9 tackle boxes, they might hard to find.

It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Tracy, here's one of my 12" yoy that were stocked on July 9th. She was sample seined and put back because I still haven't been able to catch one out of the grow out pond. I'm thinking an early December date is when they'll ultimately make it to the public pool.

Al, that is a Good Looking 12" lmb. I remember when you and I first met @ the PBC and in our discussion of doing heavy (large stocking) rates of forage fish to lmb. We talked of how it might be harder to catch a lmb when all they had to do was turn their head to eat. I am guessing that is what you may be experiencing in your forage pond. I am sure that is my experience. Keep them growing Al Tracy
