Fishing
A Multiple Species Kind of Day
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.
Fishing in the Evening, Part 2
Brown's Pond is a tradition; however, not all traditions carry on. My family has been to McCall almost every summer since I was around 8 years old. Last year, some things changed that would no longer allow us to visit as we once did. Despite that, Mrs Wandering Idahoan and I made the quick trip up to Brown's pond to keep the fishing tradition alive. Let's see what performs better: evening fishing or morning fishing (coming in Episode 14). Which time of day do you think will perform better?

What A Crappie Day, Part 4
On this trip, I visited a new pond. They don't stock this pond with trout, so I'm on the hunt for some different species. This time I catch my first Crappie as well as my biggest bluegill on the channel. I was blown away by the number of crappies I started pulling in. Throw in a few bluegills to mix things up, and it turned into a fantastic day.
