Fresh Water 2009
September 6, 2009
Jimdogg keeps up a torrid pace
Kayaks and large mouth bass a cool combination.
 |
Great day on the Charles River for Jimdogg as he lands two big largemouth bass.
The fish weighed in at 5lbs 6ozs and 4lbs 2ozs.
 |
A cool crisp late summer morning and the fishing was good. We were fishing the Dedham stretch, from Lyons Street downstream for about a mile. Water levels were low and the current wasn't too strong. Even with a brisk wind we had no trouble negotiating our way. "I was very fortunate to get these two beauties." said Jimdogg. "They were hanging out next to structure at the edge of the river channel." Texas rigged sluggos did the trick. "How many fish Jimdogg?"

Rockland Fishing Derby a huge success.
Peter Ewell of the Rockland Park Department did a great job organizing the event. All the kids involved had a busy day bringing all the various species to the weigh in. Big winner of the day was Zach (left end in red) who took it with a 1lb 14oz large mouth bass. Thanks to Rockland Eagles Aerie 841 for the prizes. Rockland park Dept., Rockland Youth Commission, Rockland High School Key Club and many others including members of the "Bite Me Bait Co". Billy Bob (Computer Bob), Jimdogg, AC and his wife Missy.

The winners and the heavy hitters ham it up. "Bite Me Bait Co" members do a great job weighing fish and handing out some great prizes once touched by Elmer himself.
Many kids and many fish made for a fun day.

Fresh water fishing is always just around the corner. Don't overlook any of the ponds in your local area. Most will carry bass and pickerel along with the many pan fish that feed them.

Jimdogg takes one for the team!
Due to an act of God, Rock Bottoms container of home made cod jigs,(borrowed by Jimdogg) took an unexpected dive to the bottom of the "Cathy Ann's" slip. Fearing expulsion from the Grand Poobah, Jimdogg donned Capt. Dave's emergency goggles and made a daring dive to the bottom to rescue the gear. It took 3 attempts in the 8 foot deep, 53 degree, murky water before the rescue was made.
"Man is that water cold!" "And deep too!" says Jimdogg Bond

Chauncy Lake on an Early Spring Day
Jimdogg and Elmer dragged out the kayaks for the first time in 2009 and manage a few fish to boot. What a beautiful day. Warm temps and clear skies, low winds, who could ask for more. Jimdogg struck first with a nice sized yellow perch, then followed with a small pickerel. Elmer had a nice large mouth and missed a couple of others. We were drifting shiners and casting various lures. The perch and bass fell to the shiners and the pickerel to a jerk bait. This is only the start of a long fishing season from the kayak fleet. Waters are warming and fishing activity will be picking up.

A couple of state pins for fish over 2 pounds and a 4.5 pound pickerel made for a great season.
"These are only a few of the many fish I caught over the winter."

BlueCross/BlueShield workers help serve the homeless at Rosie's Place near downtown Boston. "Bite Me bait Co's" own Jimdogg manned the dishwashing equipment making sure that everything was spic & span. Jimdogg one of our best photographers takes the time to make a picture himself. " These kind of work days are the best" said Jimdogg. "It makes you realize what truly goes on in the homeless world. I was glad to be a small part of the team today. BlueCross/BlueShield always has the public's interest at heart, constantly getting involved with those less fortunate than ourselves." "My co-workers and I had a great time!"

Not a bad start for the 2006 season. The cod fish could have been bigger but the draggers are all over the area and once their season is over the fish will move in again. Great weather starting, and time to paste wax the kayak and get ready to go striper fishing. Last year's fish will be only a memory after I get a big one in the kayak. "Thanks to Elmer for reeling in the fishing trip." We were fishing with Penn 113'S and I had an 8 foot Ugly Stik boat rod and Elmer had a 6.5 foot beauty bought at last weeks fishing show put on buy the Mass Striped Bass Assoc. We all joined this year. We were glad to see that the game wardens are checking the catch. Just make sure to follow the rules.

Some of the best striper fishing is in Boston harbor says Jimdogg. And here are a couple of nice ones I pulled up from under the sky scrapers. Thanks to Capt. G-No and the "Irish Ayes".

Furnace Pond is right out my front door and I spend many hours in the kayak chasing largemouth bass.

2006 continues good to me so far. Cod, haddock, now stripers. Kayaking is one of my passions and I go quite often. The North River is one of my favorites and Elmer always finds new spots for us. My first mackerel fishing this year and is that fun. Field testing our latest gear is what I do best. So far lots of nice fish. Gotta love fishing! Thanks to G-No and Rock Bottom I am having a great year!
