Had a hunch .

Our high for today was at midnight last night . We had rain and storms all night !
So I’m thinking a warm rain (warm, relative to this time of year ) would not only raise the water level of the town pond , but would also warm the pond a few degrees .
64 degrees last night as the rain came in , 54 this morning.
I got to the pond around 11:15ish and by the time I walked around the pond to the shallow corner that had been productive before , it was close to 11:30 .
I fished through several periods of drizzle and sprinkles until the rain increased and ran me headed to my car about 12:45 .
The wind was surprisingly lacking with high wind predicted later as the cold front arrives.
I caught nine shellcrackers up to nine inches and an eight inch bluegill .
All on my 6’6” St Croix Avid UL , Shimano Soare XR 500spg and 2# Floroclear, using the same homemade tungsten bead streamer jig tipped with a Mini Trout Magnet body . Black on black . Tied with a size 8 Mustad streamer hook and 4mm tungsten bead head .
Got to fish when you get the opportunity this time of year even if it’s in a light drizzle.

Nice, good job. Been raining here all day.

Very nice in not so good conditions.

Always worth going when you get the time. It worked out fine, even with the rain.
