The Hocking was muddy today. Couldn’t get around very good due to not having proper attire but did manage one.

Also found lots of holes in the bank similar to this one. Looks too big for a muskrat, any ideas?

You have a keen eye. Nothing caught on craw except an underwater tree. Retrieval unsuccessful. Caught the bass on 4” white grub on a jig.
Threw that forever back in the early days of my bass fishing tenure.... Great for smallies on the river... Back then we had too upgrade the hooks if you didn’t wanna miss a lot of fish...

Great day with my doodle bug today. She was my chauffeur most of the day on the boat. We are learning how to drive the boat, read a graph, and practiced cannonballing off the front deck about 100 times. Topped off our daddy daughter day with a good fish and cheese grits supper. Blessed beyond all measure!!!View attachment 83466View attachment 83467View attachment 83470View attachment 83469

How you liking the Lowrance? What model you go with?

Hey buddy, it's the hook 9 hdi. I love it being how most of my fishing is downlines under the boat it does great. Nothing like watching a striper come up from the bottom to your herring and then you get slammed.
My kid refers too it as a video game 😂
I just mounted a humminbird Helix 7 on the bow and will replace the old Lowrance on the console with a Helix 9 next year.
