Hi Rick,
Good job! Hope you do well this coming weekend.
One of my co-workers is planning to go out this evening to try to catch some fish. He is going to let me know how it goes. The fishing hasn't really started here yet, but he hasn't been out in a couple of weeks. My fishing friends have said it should start any day though. I am tying to finish painting my shed, and also need to plant a potted peach tree and replace a turbine vent on the roof.
Still, I hope to get out to try it this weekend also. I'm thinking about wading for walleyes if I can't find any crappies. (I generally have trouble finding crappies.) I try to catch walleye but actually catch white bass, but not usually very big ones.
Hope to tie some streamers for walleyes this evening.
At any rate, good job!
Regards,
Gandolf
Excellent, Rick!
I made my first open-water fly fishing outing after work yesterday. Pond had some ice on it still, but was mostly open. Caught 10 crappies and 4 bluegills in 45 mins. Hit the same pond tonight...all ice was gone. Caught at least 30 crappies and 19 bluegills, then walked over to another nearby pond that was 50% ice-covered and caught 4 more bluegills. Also fly fished a different pond during lunch today. The pond was >60% ice-covered, and the open water was rimmed with a wide band of gunk/algae/weeds. Only caught one bluegill there.
