Thread: Chasing Gill at our Town pond

Beginning today , I’m going post my results from my little short trips to our town pond on this post .
I’ll just add to this each time I go .
I’ll post pictures of what I catch and what I caught them on .
It’ll be a continuous post , rather than making a new one every time I go .

Today , I got to the pond around 4:15 and fished until just before 6:00 .
The weather was sunny and beautiful and the park was full of folks , doing what folks do at a town park .
I’m thinking with this warmer weather , I’m going to have to start getting up and going earlier than I have been and fish the morning when they’re less folks there .
With the crowd, the fishing loses part of its purpose, for me anyways .

My fishing combo today was my older model 5’4” St. Croix Panfish series paired with my newest Daiwa Legalis 1000LT , spooled with 2# P-Line , green mist .
I fished the drop shot with a size 10 candy corn spider over a 1/16 weight .
I was able to get three to hand and had two that felt great until the hook pulled loose . . I’m thinking from the way they were running and pulling drag , they must have been shellcrackers .
