Your welcome Lou (https://imageshack.com/a/img924/6978/dOCrVc.gif) (https://imageshack.com/i/podOCrVcg)

Don't look like there much Action going on this month.

For me this weather has fired up my arthritis, at least I think that's what it is, and my knees and hips are swelled way up. Hurts just sitting let alone standing on a boat deck. I did find some research that shows a common situation where after having Radiation Treatments a type of swelling happens due to something with the lymph nodes holding the fluid that passes through your body. Don't know but the hip swelling is right at the marks they put on me for alignment for the Radiation.

Looks like this weekend might start to get back to a normal "nice temps" here. But I got a Club Christmas Party on Saturday and I booked a weekend Get-Away for us at a place on Daytona Beach until Monday, so no Bass fishing for me. Maybe next week.

Hope you all are doing good.

With the temps dipping and our waters cooling off (finally!!) I'm sure activity will pick up again Fred.

Been almost a month since I last fished. Out with big g today in the glades

I was adjusting my bait from just releasing a fish and turned around to this guy. I thought no biggie but then he started to come on shore. I just moved and let him have the spot. I guess he wanted the fishing spot more than me.

I was just asking Rick about you yesterday.  Glad your out fishing again.  These guys have been out on the bank since the water temp dropped.

Thanks Barry just saw this. We had a good time.
Caught some fish, heck I even forgot to measure a few of them, though they weren't any bigger than the ones I did measure.

Hey Good to see you around. Haven't reached out in a bit and hadn't seen you posting fish. Yeah George asked about you and I had no good answer except, I gotta reach out.  ~sweat
Was that a snapping turtle? Or was he just a brave regular turtle that wanted your fishing spot lol? Did you try to pet it?
I've run into a few critters that have made me move from where I'm fishing but usually they are deadly like a gator.
Or could give me rabis like a Raccoon.

Thank you sir!!

Anyone that did not see the end of the Dolphin game, check out the last play against the mighty Pats.  Unbelievable WIN!!!!!! ~c~ ~c~ ~c~

Lol, Rick, your usually the one that tells me where the snakes are

This time of year is usually busy for me so I don't get out as much. Plus those cold fronts kept me indoors a few times. Didn't think I would get many bites.

Was lucky started my dink December

Wow , Lou tearing up the canals

Pretty good weekend for those of us that fished. The front that came through today may trigger the feeding frenzy I've been waiting on.

~Barry~

Caught this one walking home!! Lol!!

Alright, that's enough. Stop it.

Another nice fish! What's going on down there?

... this is my neighborhood canal. It was out of commission for several years due to road construction, but it's coming back strong, and I have changed my approach a bit too during that time.  ;)

Sorry George. Too busy either mowing the lawn today or fishing!! I might catch it on sports center tomorrow though..

I seen in the BR Thread where guys are losing their post on TT. I solved that by writing mine out on the Laptop and placing an XX where I want to place a pic, then doing an edit on TT and placing the pic.

No more losing the entire post for me.

The bigger fish are starting to feed in central Florida. Had an epic day at a favorite mudhole. Only caught a dozen or so, but 5 best would have been close to 30lbs (and were 106in). I'll post some more details and pictures on the Hawg Wall in a little while.

Way to go Barry  ~c~ ~c~ I will be looking for your report and them  ;PHO) ;D

Way to go Barry, your tearing them up this year for sure!

You should come over and fish with me one weekend. I'll share the places I've found.

~Barry~

Lol Lou, thought you would notice the ruler. Wanted to try something new. It's retractable so I can get back to fishing faster

Here is the button you push to retract

(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181216/62bb9ad46cd5be5513476d4020014f70.jpg)
Measures up to 60 ins which I know I will never hit

I got mine from tacklewarehouse
I think it was $17

Now that is one cool looking ruler!! That's why you are my designated product tester.  lo You always seem to find the most practical fishing rulers. Good stuff!!

Forgot to include a comparison to the old ruler. You can see it's bigger than the old one. But it will fit in a fanny pack no problem

Great looking ruler and retractable is great. That's the annoying part of the other one. You gotta sit there and roll it up after your done.

Though the new one does look considerably bigger. Might take it out of contention for me. My fanny pack is a decent size and can probably hold it. But I'll have to sacrifice baits probably.

I get through these Holidays and Hunt Stuff and I might just take you up on that!

These last couple of days I've been itching to get out, but I'm watching my grandsons until tomorrow, which is our Family Christmas. I've had them since Thursday.

New frog color (new to me) makes its debut tomorrow. Excited to see if I can break it in with some fatties where I'm going. ;)

If your new color don't work, I'll make sure to try your old color for you. lol

So you are taking 3 frog rods and a worm rod? lol I wouldn't be surprised.  :surrender:

Well Barry... You got me again, and Walt too. Congrats!!  But I didnt go out without a fight. It's not a pig by a long shot but this fish didn't go out without a fight either. Not a bad way to end the year. :)

Good fish to end the month and year. Looking forward to next year. Fishing should be good once we actually cool off for more than a couple of days.

~Barry~

My last one of the year
