Tried to wait out the rain this morning, once it slacked a little I drove up to the pond.
I sat in the car for about twenty minutes until the light rain became a drizzle and put on my rain jacket , grabbed my 5’6” Iprimi XXUL paired with a Daiwa Legalis LT 1000d spooled with 3# P-line .
I’d rigged it up with a 1/80 jighead with a Bobby Garland Itty bit Swim’r about 14” over a 1/16 drop shot weight .
Not my typical drop shot outfit , but I wanted to catch a few fish on the Iprimi .
And I did .
In the hour I fished I caught two gills and three bass that put one heck of a bend in the little rod . What a hoot!
The gills I felt bite , the bass would sneak up from behind the jig and my line would just feel heavy . At first I thought I had a ball of moss slime , but when it moved , I’d crank the reel to set the hook .
One of the bass was a pretty good UL bass , a nice XXUL bass.
A fun hour in the drizzle .
