Micro Fishing (Last Resort of Late Summer), Part 1
It's late summer, the heat is high, and the ponds haven't been stocked in over two months. Fall stocking is right around the corner, but what does a fisherman do until then? Micro Fishing! I head to a local pond full of bluegills, baby bluegills. While it doesn't compare to catching big fish, micro fishing can be fun. How small can they get and still take the hook? Watch to find out.
Three Fish - Three Species
Back at Fuller Pond, looking for some bass, but willing to catch more crappie and bluegill. It turns out the bass weren't biting. In fact, almost nothing was biting. Despite the slow bite, I was happy to hook into a good-sized crappie, a big bluegill for my local ponds, and even a little red-eared sunfish from a few feet offshore. It wasn't my best day, but I still had fun catching three different species.
Finding the Fish (Part 2)
Once you find the fish, things get easier. All it comes down to now is finding the best bait for their appetites. Changing things up runs some risk of finding something they are not interested in, but it could also mean doubling or tripling your catch rate.
Finding the Fish (Part 1)
Started out at a different stocked pond and only managed to catch someone else's snagged line. Moved back to my regular stocked pond and found the fish.
