Epic day at Normandy.

[Alphahawk]

Had a great day at Normandy. Caught dozens of 13-14 inch trout and a 20 inch Smallie on 2.1# test line....a heck of a battle.

An epic day of fishing for sure! Congratulations and best of luck with your camera problem. Still a good video, so thanks for posting. You are the man with that ultralight tackle. Sore lip em all!

Nice trip, when was that? What size jig head, looks huge.

That was Thursday. Been killing trout over there in the 13-15 inch range for over week. It is on fire. The jig head is a 2 gram #8 hook.

I went last Wednesday and was surprised how dirty the water was. I caught maybe 20 trout with a couple nice ones and ended up catching a few nice crappie with a bunch of shorts. I hung into something that just pulled for a few moments and I never had a chance, hook popped out after it made a few dives. I never fish right up against the dam but I may need to give it a shot, usually there is someone sitting there fishing the bottom.

Yeah water has been muddy a while. The walleye are making a run too....had a huge one on and hooked pulled out as got to the net...that comes with fishing a #8 hook.

Great video Alpha. Man I bet that was fun battling that smallmouth on 2lb test. A little stressful I'm sure but oh soo much fun. Great job landing that big girl!

Thanks much. Yes it was stressful. That polyester line will snap in a micro second. Had I been in a lake I wouldn’t have been as stressed. When it jumped I really thought “No way am I landing this fish in this current”. But it worked out.
