Thread: Fish a couple of spots this morning

I had about an hour and a half to fish this morning, so I headed to the town pond
The closest place to drop a line .
First time I’ve been there this year I believe.
It’d been awhile.
I made a few casts and caught a couple small bass that had sores on their mouths .
The water was already starting to look like a polluted pond .
Algae all over .
Check out the water in the bass picture .
I packed it in and headed to the next local water, a water reservoir about ten minutes away .
I had just about forty minutes left when I threw my first cast off the docks at the boat ramp.
Fishing a five foot Rosewood UL paired with an old Shimano Sedona 500 spooled with Daiwa J Braid , with a .5 gram tungsten jighead and shortened Bison TM .
I knew the gills around there would be small but at least the water is cleaner .
I caught ten little gills that were fun on the little rod .
I lost the biggest gill that got wrapped up in wad of old fishing line that was on one of the dock pilings . Almost has him , a colored up 6-7” incher .
