Fishing
What A Crappie Day, Part 3
On this trip, I visited a new pond. They don't stock this pond with trout, so I'm on the hunt for some different species. This time I catch my first Crappie as well as my biggest bluegill on the channel. I was blown away by the number of crappies I started pulling in. Throw in a few bluegills to mix things up, and it turned into a fantastic day.
Covering the Whole Pond, Part 3
After the remaining people left, I moved to this pond's last main fishing spot. From here, I find the most fish of the day. Unfortunately, these fish are ravenous and swallow the bait and hook before I can set the hook. One fish did not make it, but I was lucky enough to release the others successfully. That is one issue with using a bottom rig like mine. It can become very difficult to release them.
Finding a Honey Hole (Part 3)
Finishing off the day with a surprising number of fish. Considering I was pretty sure I wasn’t going to catch anything in the beginning, what a day it turned out to be. If you can try a different rig, use your eyes to look for evidence of where the fish are, and then work to make things happen, you can turn a bad day into a great one.
