Brother and I went to a new lake for us with word that it was loaded with crappie an gills. Was on the water at 7AM , a very photo perfect little pond. lush lilly pads ,areas of shore line brush, remains of old wooden docks. Light fog over the water and barn swallows low to the water catching bugs , and QUIET. Brother told my to bring a fly rod as he was told there was a lot of surface feeding going on.. We worked the Pads...Weed line... Drop offs...Points ....Beat the still glass like water to a foam;rubber spider;cork poppers,muddler minnow, woolly buggers, grasshopper, ant....slip bobber; minnows ;crickets ;red worms, jigs with GULP. WE WERE SKUNED! Humin'bird painted fish, vertical jigged , small spoons .crank baits, all the time fish alarm going off. Their are fish there, we watched as every 40 to 50 minutes a Fish Hawk would dive out of the blue sky and grab talons full of fish and fly off... End of day Hawk 6, Humans 0.. A pretty day of fishing and being with the kid brother.
