Ish playing music, catching fish

Ish Monroe has some background tunes playing in his boat this morning, as he concentrates early on flipping a jig. He flipped up a 2-pound, 1-ounce bass to get on the board.

Interestingly, Monroe hasn’t thrown his signature topwater frog yet, but you know that’s coming. Here’s what he had rigged on his boat deck at the start: two Missile Baits Ike’s Flip Out Jigs, one black, one black-and-blue, both trailed with black Missile D Bombs in black; a black River2Sea Ish Monroe Phat Matt Daddy Frog, a swim jig and a vibrating jig.
