After experiencing the North Farms Reservoir fish kill this morning, I headed over to Spring Pond in Avon. I decided to check out an area on the east shore, just south of the basalt boulder and rocky beach that mark the beginning of the northeast cove. I arrived at 2:00 pm and by 2:30 pm I had drilled seven holes and set my five tip-ups with small shiners in a line roughly perpendicular to the shore. I began jigging, but almost immediately got a flag on the middle tip-up:

I didn't get any nibbles in my first two jigging holes, so I started drilling holes toward the middle of the pond:

And here's the best fishing video that I've made so far:

Although I stayed on the ice when the rain cloud went over, I packed up at 4:35 pm when another set of dark clouds appeared, the wind began to blow and snow began to flurry. All told, I got the one fall fish on the tip-up, and jigged up four sunnies and the one perch. There's still a lot more pond for me to check out there. I'm gonna find me them big largemouth bass.

As much as I like eight inch holes, your six inch auger cuts through the ice like it was butter!
