Fishing
My Top 5 Artificial Baits
Fishing was pretty rough this week, with the heat making the fish sluggish and unwilling to eat. The local ponds are also not getting any new fish stocked in them during these hot Summer months, so there are fewer fish to go around. Since I was striking out at the ponds, I thought I'd share my personal top 5 artificial baits. Enjoy!

Sego Prairie Pond is usually an excellent pond to fish, especially when stocked heavily. However, this day was not a great day. I arrived at sunrise, and the fish were rising everywhere. Despite this, I struggled to find what it was exactly that they were hungry for. Sometimes...often, the struggle is real.
Fish When the Fishing is Good, Part 3
When the fish stocking kicks off, you have to take advantage. That usually means getting to the water before anyone and everyone else.
