    Rain and Feesh....

    We got our first sprinkle of rain in forever yesterday. Just enough to get me off the tractor and out at the pond. The fish were automatic. I literally were catching bream on every cast. I counted once and caught 4 slabs in one minute. I caught 50 bream and went in. Got out this morning and it's still too wet to do anything so I go fishing again. Caught 75 bream (one 11 inches long) 4 Crappie, 9 big catfish, and 11 bass. Threw back all the bass but kept the bream for a friend who just came and picked them up. image-1841224462.jpg

    Given there's no red gill tab I'd have to go with bluegill. But since its name is Ruby there's no tellin'.

Do you mind if I share the pictures in another forum I frequent? That 11 inches is going to freak out a few of the locals there.....

    I just stopped by a buddy's pond and drug the 3 weight out from behind the seat. Tied on a #10 Chugger. Cast anywhere near the bank - it was an automatic bull bluegill. Anywhere 30 feet from the bank - it was a hen about to burst. Little bass (up to 2#) were chasing crappie fry near the stick-ups, so caught a few of them.

    Nice 'gills - nothing near 11" - that's a pig. Nice work.
    If you turn a dog loose to hunt – you’d better to be ready to deal with what he trees.

    Nandy, you are welcome to use any of those pictures. I think I sent you a clip yesterday of me catching 3 or 4 in a minute.
