Northwest Fishing Reports

Went out Saturday to play with the Garmin SideVu to get used to it. Did a 'power' run for 20 min as I have not run the main motor for a while, came off plane and set up the Minn Kota Terrova to go down the bank at 20'-25' at about 1 mph. I fired up the SideVu then practiced a bit with a Diawa spinning combo I have not used for some time as I switched out to using all casting gear some time back. I figured the spinning combo would be better to use with the Elgin Fishing God's Tooth lure's I picked up.
After about 10 minutes I could pretty much hit what I was aiming at again and moved on to playing with the SideVu. Switched out colors and changed just a few other things. Looking good! After about 45 minutes I was studying some weeds and saw what looked to be a good sized fish. Switched on the Panoptix and saw it there as well. Picked up the Diawa with the Perch pattern Elgin God's Tooth, pitched it slightly past where it showed and did a little jerk, jerk, reel, reel action. WHAM! After some time (6 lb test) I got this smallmouth in the boat. Biggest I have caught. Did not weigh it. Dang that was fun! Sorry if the pic is upside down, I tried to get it right but had no luck.

Nice fish! Strange with the picture, the picture int he post is upside down, but the full picture when you click on it is right-side up. Going to try to upload it off of my machine to see if it does the same thing, just for fun. Holy hell, ok, I think we found another bug Aaron, LOL. uploaded it once, and it appeared upside down, so I resized it a bit smaller to see if it was a width issue, and now all of a sudden it looks like I uploaded it six times, and to boot, one of them is right-side up! I can see the code for attached images in the text where the images are located, and can delete them, but I didn't put them there to begin with, so I left it there for you to see. Click to edit my post and you should be able to see them too, it's after the last word in the first paragraph of this post, after the word "fun" and before any of my written text as well. I left them there so admin could look to see what is causing this weird issue. I'm still not sure what caused them to be posted upside down, or what about the size made the last one I uploaded post right-side up.
