|
|
Took some people from work for a fun fishing trip on Candlewood.
Water was stained, temp 78F, clear skies, lite wind.
Fished mostly weed bed in about 15-25 FOW. Noting, threw everything but the kitchen sink.
Talked with a few other guys and it seemed to be the same for them.
There was a cold front the night before so that might have had a big effect on the fish.
Around 11:30 worked a stone wall, (FOUND THEM) It seemed they were stacked against the wall. They were hitting tubes, jibs, swim baits.
Best fish was a 2+ smb, I lost a monster at the boat. It was a smb that went well over 4+.
I caught that monster on a customer jig I made and was playing with.. It's a good feeling that something you made catches fish.. _________________ Sleep...Eat...Fish!!!!! Then do it all over again. |

Hey, Ron, thanks. The cold front might explain why Flipper and I didn't see any northern pike or too much of anything else at Hopeville Pond on Friday, either. _________________ Don't forget to wear sunscreen and don't litter! |

Just to get out makes it worth it. Wondering why Jim passed on the retort.
