Now I Know

The Gills should be showing up anytime now in the local creeks, but two trips this week to 2 different creeks and not a cricket cruncher one to be found. The Bass and Shad are there, and tonight I probably found out why they are not up shallow yet.

Yep, old Linesides in 1-3ft of water will keep the Panfish at bay for sure. Caught on the Corto and 3lb Ester line, he gave me all I wanted, but was thankful to get to photograph and release him unharmed. The smaller but just as much fun cousins are showing up also for the Fall feed, and their rod jarring bite is amplified by the good Japanese Graphite.

By December 1st the Panfish should return to these shallows for the winter, and I will be waiting.
