Pomona- Sunday

[slabby joe]

Took a long time friend (Steve) fishing to the only lake I had caught fish on lately and after the traditional breakfast at Green Acres and 4dz. minners next door we arrived to a fogged in lake Another boat was on the community brush pile near the ramp so we just had to idle around the south side of the lake looking for some piles, trying to get used to the side scan and marked what I thought was brush but turned out to be shad or "anonomyus propagation" so with the fog starting to lift we headed to the north side where I knew of some piles that Ron and I had fished a week ago. Found half doz. piles but could only find smaller fish, we moved further west and found more piles but not any bigger fish Went to the trees and the only fish caught was a nice green carp that weighed close to 4 lbs. ( Steve had fun bringing it in on a 9ft. crappie rod) We only managed 7 keepers that were released but got to see a Bald Eagle and an Osprey successfully fishing, all kinds of white pelicans and seagulls on the water and all in all a beautiful day to be outside.( I taped the Chiefs game and fortunately it was worth watching) Sure hope the "catching" gets better....still pretty funky for me but this is my favorite time of year. When the fog lifted and moved towards the dam Steve with a nice LMB

Thanks for the report. I drove to Truman that morning and missed a turn because of the fog. It was hard to drive in!
