Had to go Mini

[gillchaser999]

I guess the Labor Day weekend folks hammered the fishing area that’s available for bank fishing yesterday at lake McIntosh .
Fishing was tough this morning.
I started off fishing an older 6’6” St Croix Premier light action rod with a Shimano Soare BB 500spg and 2# line .
I fished the Premier for about thirty minutes and couldn’t handle it any longer .
The old rod just felt heavy and clumsy.
I had my Abu Garcia MB3 combo in the car but opted to put the Soare BB on a four piece 5’6” St Croix Triumph UL travel rod .
Big difference in feel . Casting distance with my hand tied jigs was about the same as with the longer rod .
I caught one fish on the Premier and a couple on the Triumph with my hand ties before switching to a Mini Trout Magnet .
First cast with a black MTM caught a fish .
I ended up catching an even dozen with nine of them on the Mini Trout Magnet .
Weather was a little warmer this morning.
The best four .
