30 minute Quick Trip
Dropped my wife off at the hair salon and drove to nearby Lake McIntosh .
I set a timer on my watch for 30 minutes as I started fishing .
Hooked a small bluegill on my first two casts . Just knew it was going to be a fast and furious thirty minutes..
I was fishing economy today , my 5’6” St Croix Triumph ULF , with a Carbon X 1000s shallow spool reel , spooled with KastKing 6# braid , a 4# Floroclear leader .
Lure was a the tiny .7g micro spinner . All of this was planned last night and with only thirty minutes, I hoped I was right .
A little wind gave me trouble casting the light lure a few times , but I was able to get it out far enough to catch seven total with my best two coming last as my timer went off .

Most were trainer gills but felt good on the SC ultralight.

Thirty minutes is plenty time to spend out there in the heat of the day .Originally Posted by SuperDave336
Glad there was a little breeze that helped some .
We’ve got high high humidity around here so when it’s 90 it feels like 98 !

Good deal. I spent an hour out in the heat and got zero. Not even a tap.

BTW , the 5’6” SC Triumph/carbon X combo was a blast catching gills today . A super lightweight combo .
These two piece rods have a unique action similar to an XUL .
All of the two piece SC 5’6” models are fun gill catchers , the Triumph, the Premier , and the Avid .
I have an older model Triumph 5’6” model that I used for catching stocker trout in north Georgia. The light fast tip helped keep the trout hooked up better than any other rod I had back then .

A good trip for a short one, and the second pic is a pretty one. I worked almost twelve hours today and the actual temps were just under 100*. I like your day better. Yours too Randy, even with no fish.
