    My first ledge fish.

    I know this isn't a huge fish...but it's the biggest one I caught today at Brookville Reservoir. Caught it on a Carolina rig in 20' of water. What makes it important...to me at least is it's the first bass I've caught on a ledge...and the first fish I've caught using a Carolina rig.

    Awesome Bill 20ft that's getting down there on the Ville'. I've been playing on the OH River lately and will be thru August .....I'd rather be fishing the Ville'.

    That's something to catch 5 keepers on Brookville in the middle of summer When you starting your Guide Service?

    Great fish Bill. I love going out fishing, but to catch them doing something new is the best

    Bill I know you have a picture of the fish, but do you have any witnesses that can collaborate the story that "you" caught it, let alone on a Carolina Rig in 20 feet of water??

    Congrats Bill!! That is great that your learning something new and you had positive results!

    I'm pretty fired up about it. I've been messing around with the idea that I'd give the ledge fishin' and the carolina rig a serious try and at least one day...it worked.
