Fishing
This Pond Always Produces, Part 3
I made my yearly trip to McCall and fished this legendary pond. The little hike loses a lot of people, but once you get here, the fishing is worth every step. Due to the number of fish, I'm going to split this trip into four parts. Please enjoy. If you ever visit this pond, it is worth stopping at.
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.
