    4-2-09
    Ankeny Public Pond
    Time: 12:15-12:50pm
    Weather: Cloudy, 40 F
    Wind: 10mph from NNE
    Fish caught: 5 Bluegill, lost/missed one more
    Lure used: "SHWAPF" fly & 5wt fly gear

    I fished during lunch. It was cold out...but the fish were somewhat active, and certainly fought very well!

    Nice gill FishnDave, I need to remember to
    try for gill more whilst lmb fishing...I usually
    need to use smaller flies and the bigger lmb
    surprise me sometimes and my 5wt. gets a
    good workout at times.

    Cheers,

    Very nice Gill!! Great way to spend a lunch hour.
    Happiness is wading boots that never have a chance to dry out.

    Very nice Dave. Bluegills are just about my favorite fish in the whole world. I'm looking forward to some nice days.

    After yesterday's wind/snowstorm, looks like we'll finally be getting some decent weather (50'sF) by mid-week.

    Bluegills ARE a lotta fun!
