Fishing
Revisiting a Honey Hole, Part 1
Returned to a honey hole from earlier in the year to see if it was still producing and to see how much the fish had grown. I was not disappointed. The fishing was great. The fish had grown to a very respectable size. My only remorse was that there were no Crappie this time around.
Mystery Pond - Multiple Species, Part 1
I went to a pond I hadn't fished since before I was a teenager. I didn't know what I would find, but expected panfish. I was right. Then things started getting crazy. I even ended up catching a species that I couldn't even identify. I had never caught one like it before. It was super aggressive and came out of nowhere. This was a fun trip overall. I hope you enjoy it.
The Same Pond but in the Evening, Part 1
I returned to the same pond in the evening to see if the fishing was better. The results speak for themselves. I can only imagine that stress from fishing, predators, and heat can affect fishing in the evening. While the evening is still better than midday, the morning still wins out in the end, at least in my opinion.
50 Trout in 2 Hours, Part 1
I had passed this pond a number of times while floating the river that runs along it. One time, we docked briefly, and I got out to examine the pond to see what looked like some small fish barely breaking the surface. However, I finally got to fish it, and I was not disappointed. It was a wild morning.
First Time at a New Pond was a Success, Part 1
A subscriber suggested visiting this pond in Nampa, and I was finally able to make it out. The wind was wild and made fishing a little interesting, but the day was a huge success. Got into a couple of species of various sizes and had a blast. I don't know how many fish I caught in total, but it was quite a few. Changing to the smaller Crappie Magnet Jig Head significantly improved my hookset probability.
