New pond
Message:
Took dans advice to hit a real pond in CT- glad we did that. Was up at 3 and fell back asleep- didnt head out till 8-9am and there was HEAVY fog. Cloudy and overcast till 11. I picked two slammer fish in the first 45 mins and from then on it slowed down. [img:9f00d59e0a]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/moneyslap07/CIMG0856.jpg[/img:9f00d59e0a] This one went 3 8- short and STOUT- like every fish I caught today (I say I because tyler caught 1 pickerel.... he DID lose a solid 3 on a senko though) [img:9f00d59e0a]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/moneyslap07/CIMG0858.jpg[/img:9f00d59e0a] So anyways- the sun came out and the topwater died- chucked around spinnerbaits/chatterbaits for an hour with a thorough jigging of every ok tree we came across with 1 pickerel to show for it. I figured I sucked and should quit life. We resorted to the senko around stump fields in 6-7fow and we see a guy doing the same thing pull out a solid 4-5pounder. Felt cool to watch the fight from the sidelines- fish was very accrobatic and I cant believe it didnt come off. I plug around some more and pick up this beast- my only nonkeeper of the day. This is why I dont fish senkos.... 5in bait- 6in fish [img:9f00d59e0a]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/moneyslap07/CIMG0861.jpg[/img:9f00d59e0a] Break off a good fish and I knew it was a pickerel- same area after retying and I get this nasty thing. Examine the look of utter disgust upon my face. [img:9f00d59e0a]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/moneyslap07/CIMG0862.jpg[/img:9f00d59e0a] FINALLY I AM SAVED- picked up the dropshot and didnt put it down for the next 45mins. [img:9f00d59e0a]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/moneyslap07/CIMG0866.jpg[/img:9f00d59e0a] This one went 2 12 [img:9f00d59e0a]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/moneyslap07/CIMG0867.jpg[/img:9f00d59e0a] This one was the smallest keeper weighed at 2 1 [img:9f00d59e0a]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/moneyslap07/CIMG0870.jpg[/img:9f00d59e0a] Just obese fish today- Dan's spot deffinately kicks ass and I really wish I had more time. I found a sick millfoil pattern- 10fow looking for sparse patches of milfoil- I went over three spots of tiny patches of milfoil and caught a fish off of every one. Only found this pattern in the last 15 mins of fishing. THANK YOU DAN! Ive never been able to find a descent lake in my area and this one kicked ass- about an hour away but well worth it. Felt good to put a solid 12pound limit in the boat for once. BTW- hitting a pond tmw morning EARLY (leaving my house at 3am) And I need a non boater. My skanoe is quite stable and makes for a good little boat. Bowmount trolling motor- eagle fishmark 320 wired for lights/switches on the finder- carpeted floor boards- chairs.

Good Job fishing and I great report Nick, I was watching me son's football game thinking how this fog must be good for fishing. I like your Skanoe.. Question, What lure is that in your first picture? and can you tell me where you went? Thanks, Ron
