We finally managed to get out and fish a bit yesterday morning. Temperatures are cooler early in the morning and we arrived at one of the nearby lakes shortly after sunrise.
The wind kicked up just as the sun rose over the hills so we had some issues casting our light lures. We managed to pull out 7 bass and the one perch. We were expecting a package so opted to head home early to be there for its arrival. Long story short…it never arrived so we wasted our time. Had we known, we would’ve stayed and fished all afternoon.
Fast forward to the next morning and we were once again waiting for the package to arrive and it finally did at 0905.
We were at another local lake by 0930 with the purpose of putting this rod through its paces. We had a narrow window of opportunity as storms are expected early this afternoon.
Much to our surprise, they had cleared all of the brush from around the lakeshore so we had a few more chances to cast from the bank.
We managed to catch 5 bass before the rain started. I am impressed with the new rod and can see it being almost perfect for the trout ponds. It would definitely be fun to use on the rivers for smallmouth.
It looks like it will finally start cooling down after tonight which is a great relief. We want to fish the river at least one more time before trout season starts. It will all depend on how much rain we get tonight and what the temperatures are going to do. Stay tuned for more and thanks for reading.
