Fishing
Tenkara for Lots of Baby Bass, the Conclusion
Finishing off at the stocked pond. With the biggest fish coming in at about 6 inches, we certainly aren't breaking any records. Despite their size it is still fun to see such small fish be so aggressive. Ends up being a fun little day of fishing.
Tenkara for Lots of Baby Bass, the Beginning
Started out at Kleiner Pond fishing for sunfish, but after almost 2 hours of fishing, a single bluegill was not cutting it. I went back to my regular stocked pond and played around with my Dragontail Kaida Tenkara rod. Started out a bit slow as I worked to find what was most effective to draw the bite. Soon, I was bringing them left and right.
Tenkara for Sunfish and Baby Bass
My regular stocked pond has been slammed over the Summer, and they don't stock it over that time, so there were no trout to be found on this trip. Thankfully, I brought along my Tenkara gear and decided to give it a go with all the baby bass I could see along the shoreline. Turned out to be pretty fun and even started things off with a surprise species.
New Pond - Great Fishing
Fished a new pond. It is much smaller than the pond near my home, but I started right off at a great spot and had a fun and successful trip. The wind made things a little difficult, especially since my rig was incredibly lightweight, but I was able to make it work.
Tough Start - Reasonable Conclusion
The pond is starting to get crowded, and soon it will be nearly impossible to use. I have to wait for my turn at the seemingly only spot the fish are congregating at, but even when I get the good spot, I have to find what the fish are biting on.
