Caught on a Blond Terror canal special pencil. Thanks, Chris! Only fish I got last night, but I had another viscious hit on the same plug. This one measured out at 33" and was released.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

Here's a couple from yesterday. My first fish on a spook, nothing great but it's a start. And here's a pretty good fish on a pencil. 42" 26# on the boga.

Nice fish! It was good running into you the other night. How'd you do after we left?

Me and my son with some topwater bass. He got his on a Silent Scott pencil and I got mine on one of my poppers.

First cast=pow, then nothing.

Made one cast and partial drift with this 7.5" pichney stlye jointed eely and hooked right up...figured I was in for some fun and it turned out to be my only fish of the night. Still, its likely bigger than anything Numbskull has caught this year thus its a victory (albeit small) for me on mulitple fronts.

Here is one of several recent bass on my Dad Bill's needlefish

After seeing all your work at Plugfest Bill really got into the scaling effect that he saw you guys doing so he made this 9 inch 2 1/2 oz green needle. It has gold scaling effect, his signature red throat and a cream belly. Casts really great. Floats and makes a great V wake. I picked up this 31 incher Sunday night and a 28 incher Monday morning. As you may know bass have been tough to come by on the Vineyard lately (also got a 31.99 incher -just under Derby size-on one of his black darters as well 2 weeks ago). His plugs keep producing, still looking for a really big fish on one. Maybe in RI during the MS Surf Challenge next weekend or Tri-State the following weekend. He is working on a few more black darters now, still going strong. He also does micro glitter since he saw that at Plugfest.
This "Hospitality Bass" became filets for the friend who provided the weekend room for me this weekend and 2 weekends ago.

God Bless Stan Gibbs. A clone of his 2.75 oz pencil. A "must have" plug. I was the guy with the camera, not the rod.
