removed the skunk at Wooster Pond 4/24/14
Message:
I showed up at Wooster around 7:45 pm. The wind was gusting very strong. I started throwing a 3 inch wacky blue senko no avail. Headed over to the other end around 8pm and observed a tremendous amount of activity on the surface. I think some sunnies were going to town on some bread thrown in the water before I got there. (the same people left their bag of bread on the ground so i took a few seconds and threw it away for them) I got to talking with a guy who mentioned he had caught a bunch of sunnies along with a few smaller bass earlier in the evening. He was switching between a medium size fly rod that he practices with and a light action bass rig. I forgot what he was using for lures. A few minutes after he left I switched over to a pumpkin 3 inch senko on a offset gama hook, not sure of the size. Low and behold, I felt the tap-tap, and reeled in an approximately 1lb lmb. I released it and packed up my things a few minutes later.

You'll still catch some short largemouth bass with it, but you'll also catch some keepers. :wink:

Phil, Good point, but I gotta tell you, I haven't had the best luck with the 5 inch senkos. However, I think I bought a poor color, the orange flake version. I should try the watermelon pumpkin seed and see what that does for me. By the way, now that I dont have to lug the Nucanoe around,and bought a standard size fishing kayak when are we going to finish our tour of the Seymour res #4? I also want to check out colebrook asap. I will pm you with some dates
