Goodbye To Yet Another Record Setting Month In 2025

 Back in mid-June, I was singing the blues because fishing was just ok and the motor was having issues. With all the fishing I did at the Grumpy Old Man Hole and out of the Slop Slip, I didn't get the Trophy in the water until June 5th. I really struggled on Platte/Sullivan the previous fall and was highly concerned I was in for a mediocre summer and fall.  On June 29th, I began to really figure out the puzzle and never looked back. Bam, my best July for the number of fish caught, and by a wide margin. Bam, my best August. Bam, my best September. October extended the streak to four straight months of setting the record for the number of fish caught for that month. I also set this record in April. 

More posts to come on the records I set in 2025.

April 2025 Has Rocked It, Amadeus

 

With four days left to fish, I have already broken my personal best record for most fish caught in April. The Silver Bullhead bite has also set an all time personal best with 370 silver bullheads caught in a year and counting.  Silver Bullheads not to be confused with crappie, which I have had better years with because of ice fishing. The weather, which hasn't been too hot or too cold and lack of boat traffic because it is April are two of the main factors that have held the bite together for two weeks now. I did notice two male crappie beginning to turn darker last night. Hopefully, the silver bullhead bite will make it to next week.
