I got a phone call that I could go in and fish a pond. The only request was that I hike in and not drive. When I got to the field I could tell why. Most of the field is fairly hilly and everything was very dry. My guess was that any rain did not soak in so driving might have caused a grass fire. I knew that this pond is really open. The trees are at least 50 yards from the pond with very few bushes around. It’s really hard to snag the big ones here. I took two 3 weights with me. I put on a black fur tailed leech and a yellow boa yarn fly.
Rick, I’ll play…I’m going to guess exactly 100 of each.
I wish. To high.
Rocl
38…of each…
Nope low
Rick
Am I allowed to guess again? 50 of each?
Hi Rick---- I’ll guess 46 of each.
Both to low.
Rick
66 1/2 of each…oops…drop the half. :roll:
To low.
Rick
Jeez Rick,
You MUST have been VERY busy! I know how content we are to pester 40-50 fish in a long afternoon.
…74…
To high.
Rick
Ahhh,
That does narrow it a bit.
All we can think of now is the job of filleting you must perform :shock:to share them.
…lee s.
70 of each?
Nope. To high
Rick
OK Rick,
No guesses for awhile. Sooooo…add the half…68.
Gonna try to get up to our SOFT water (ha ha) and pester some more crappie. Do you know if they are active in “dingy” storm water and about bug color in such? We have been using minnow immi’s in generally white or chartreuse in much clearer water.
Broke two rods in the last two trips…it sure is a chore being such a klutz!
…lee s.
Bingo. Send me your snail mail.
I try bright colors in the dingy water.
Also soft hackle type flies tied with dry fly hackle and a metal beadhead.
Moves a lot of water for he lateral line stimulation.
Rick
90 each and not 1 more.
