I was all alone on this fishing trip, and if my struggles were the standard, I can understand why. It took over an hour to hook into my first fish. Another 20 minutes for the second, and over an hour and a half for the third. However, by the end, I found the combo that proved most successful. With a real red worm threaded onto a trout magnet jighead and a slow retrieve, I caught three more fish in the time it took me to catch the first.

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