Nod Brook WMA 06/23
Message:
I paddled the lower (i.e., north) pond at Nod Brook for an hour this morning, from about 10:00 am to 11:00 am, until thunder cracked overhead. :shock: Then I got the hell off of the water! Before I did, though, I threw a Rage Tail craw on a 5/0 hook and dragged it over the weeds like a frog. I got a half a dozen hits, and missed two hooksets, but got a good hookset on the best hit of the morning. Unfortunately, I had been too lazy to retie my hook directly to braid and had a 20 pound test fluoro leader that snapped when the fish pulled to the bottom and into the weeds. Sonofab!^@# I have to admit that TurtleKiss (aka Kira) had told me I would regret using anything but straight braid. And, yes, she was right! :oops: However, I had an hour to kill this evening while my kids were at their karate class, so I went back to Nod Brook to fish from the shore from 6:35 pm to 7:35 pm. Instead of the Rage Tail craw, I threw a bullfrog colored Zoom Horny Toad on a 4/0 hook. I got only one hit, but I counted to three, set the hook and landed it: [img:51d1b0acb4]http://img197.imageshack.us/img197/3879/20110623nodbrookwma.jpg[/img:51d1b0acb4] It wasn't a big fish, but it was [i:51d1b0acb4][b:51d1b0acb4]totally[/b:51d1b0acb4][/i:51d1b0acb4] worth the soaked feet and mosquito bites. :D

Froggin is fun but also frustrating at times because the fish don't always cooperate.
