Was minding my own business when I received a call from G$ to go fish. We don't have to ask me twice. Weather is beautiful today! Sweatshirt weather.
Well we met up at one of his ponds, but HALF FROZEN. And of course, the half we needed, so we headed down the road to another spot. OPEN WATER! Two guys were there and when one got up to show the other his stringer, I knew we came to the right place.
I tied on a Prince and a Mity Mouse and tossed out. About the third cast...there you are. and so on.
Not big fish, but fish non the less.
I want to thank TAILGRABBER for sending me that reel. I would not hesitate to buy another one. What a sweet reel and very reasonably priced.
It was a little over kill on the tackle for these fish, but I had no problem feeling the take. The rod is the W.W. Griggs Vintage 8 1/2' 5/6
