    Default Another thirty minute Challenge


    Today was hair salon day , so threw a rod in the car .
    My 6’ St Croix Avid ULF paired with a Daiwa Legalis LT 1000d and three pound test P-line .
    I already had a 1/32 Trout Magnet jig head and Sowbug body tied on so I went with it.
    The weather was wet . One of those drizzly days where you’re not sure if it’s going dump on you or not .
    When I go out of the car at the lake , after dropping my wife off , I set my iphone timer at thirty minutes and walked straight to the boat ramp .
    About my third cast I caught a nice crappie. After snapping a picture, and releasing it , the rain picked up and I headed for the car .
    About ten minutes and it slacked up and I was back at the ramp .
    My next crappie turned out to be the biggest and I thought if I’d only brought a cooler , I’d keep a couple .
    Ended up with three crappies and a small bass , in less than twenty minutes of actual fishing time.
    I kinda enjoy these little timed outings .
    The pressure of catching something in an allocated time adds to the excitement.
    The wife has PT in the morning, if it’s not raining I’ll be at it again .

    I got lucky . Fishing involves a lot of luck IMO , but one can increase their chances.

    That’s a stud crappie! That would have me thinking tacos too. A good trip in a small window, good job.
