A Multiple Species Kind of Day

Rig: Telescoping Rod & Pfleuger Spinning Reel

Species: Rainbow Trout, Crappie, Bluegill

I returned to Sawyers Pond in Emmett, Idaho, for this trip and didn't expect the results. Started off getting into some trout just beyond the weed line and very deep. The float was getting some interest, but I couldn't get the hookset, so I tested the bluegill I was seeing in front of me. Turned out there was a massive slab of a Crappie hanging out there. This one made my new PB. While I waited for more trout, I used the Tenkara to fish around the dock and catch several gorgeous bluegill.

Thanks for joining me on my fishing adventures. I hope to see you again next week.
