Charles River Fishing Report

Booyah! Frog Fishing

Went bank fishing on the Charles River 7:30pm last Thursday and the topwater bite was on, even with the ubiquitous boat traffic and rowers in the area.

I noticed a consistent, shallow weed line about 15 feet from shore and thought this along with the calm conditions would be an ideal setting for frog fishing. Sure enough, I caught my best largemouth this year on my first cast – an estimated 3 pounder. In the next hour, I caught 4 other largemouth, including 2 others over 2 pounds, and had about 6-7 additional blow ups and misses.

I'm still waiting for that 5 or 6 pounder to strike. Good chance it could happen on a topwater frog!
