F is for Fishing

Stopped to fish an area around and under a road bridge on a local river for a little bit to break up a long drive, and was rewarded.

At a spot where I usually don't have trouble getting hits, I had to try a few different lures before I could get anything to commit.

Started out intending to fish topwater, but ended up hitting a bunch of redbreast sunfish on the micro-jig around the area where the canal, the creek, and the main river all cross.

Caught a decent enough small Bass at a local public pond, but failed at fish handling :( For photos and short clips, follow me on instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/f.is.for.fishing/ Follow me on Fishbrain for more catch details: https://fishbrain.com/anglers/vespo27

Tried out a small pond I haven't visited in a while- there were some impressive looking Bass there, but they were too out of it from the heat to hit anything. The bluegills. however, were very active.

I had a short window to fish during a break today, so I used the micro-tube jig again and kept hitting Green Sunfish everywhere I tried... a LOT of Green Sunfish.

Made a quick stop at the "Hidden" Pond Memorial Day Morning to try out my H&H Tackle Cocahoe Minnow Jig Spin- and was very happy with the results- including my new PB Bass, a new (to me) species, and something unexpected.

I hit up a hard to reach spot, and after trying a few things, settled on using a micro tube jig (a berkley powerbait atomic tube) for a variety of species.

My kids were at a school picnic in one of the parks where I fish, so I had an opportunity to sneak off and throw a few lures. Later I fished with my kids and taught one of their friends some of the basics. but that part is off-camera. All-in-all, a good day despite the relatively small fish.

Switched back and forth between a Blue Fox Inline Spinner and a Texas Rigged purple Curly Tail Worm just to see which one would outdo the other, at least this time...

I braved hiking the woods to get back to a pond that's tucked away in the middle of a local neighborhood- it's one of those spots you'd never notice driving by, but is obvious if you check google maps! I've only caught one fish there before, but it was a fairly large one so...

Some days you're just happy to land something to keep the skunk off. #noskunk Was having bad luck with a texas rigged worm, so I threw a small blue fox spinner just for the heck of it.

Most of my usual spots were overrun with people fishing this weekend, so I tried a few Little Lures at the "Little Pond" instead.

Just for a change of pace, I grabbed one of the kid's rods, rigged it with a trout magnet, went down to the local panfish spot. And ended up with a four species slam.

Back with the Texas Rig, this time with a more traditional stick worm in bright green to stand out in the muddy water.

I broke out the baitcaster and one of those $1 walmart spinnerbaits (black and yellow with a single colorado blade) and paired it with a 3.3 inch green pumpkin googan saucy swimmer paddletail as a trailer- I think the trailer costs more than the spinner!

My first trout this year. Wasn't expecting to catch one, and I've clearly forgotten how to handle them without being clumsy!

I gave my light texas rig another shot- water was a little more cloudy today so I ended up switching colors before I started getting hits.

I needed some exercise, so I rode my bike along the canal... and brought a rod armed with a 1/6 oz rooster tail minnow inline spinner.

I don't fish the texas rig enough, so I gave it a shot again today with a small purple curly-tail worm on a 1/0 worm hook with a 1/8 oz bullet weight. Swam it, dragged it, dropped it, twitched it, and dead sticked it until I got their attention.
