20151014- Fall Bite Smallies interfering with my "Panfish Bite"... LOL
Took my walk to the lake carrying three UL rods and light weight net and backpack with panfish jigs. Wasn’t expecting much due the extended cold front lasting much of October. Was there only a few minutes when I hooked up with Brownie hugging the drop close. The Berkely Nanofil held tight and I quickly brought the fish to net in all her glory… a true Lunker class. After a few quick snaps she was carefully released and took off in a fury. I ended up with 3 total in net out of 6 fish on. A great little outing!
after having that short burst of activity 6 SMB's on and landing 3... i had to take a break from fishing because of back spasms and leg pain who knows if there were more to be caught. i meant to return later but was unable to make it. Hopefully today i could continue tagging a few.
