Thread: A fun day.

Went back for another day of catching Gills. Only had around 60 fish from first stop but got into about a dozen shellcrackers today.....9-10 inches. Had 23 Gills at the 8-9 inch mark. Caught a lot of juvenile shellcrackers around 6 inchs. Not big at all by shellcracker standards but a 6 inch shellcracker is still a good fight using 2# test line. Second stop was at my old fishing hole of many years...VFW Lake. Caught 10 northern strain Gills there...all of them male cookie cutters...7-8 inches. Didn't stay there long...it had been a long day and it was hot....time to go home. Used two colors of Trout Magnet today....Purple Redemption and Bison. Same setup as yesterday...Tict Ice Cube 6' 9" UL Mebaru rod....SOS 2# test line. Those shellcrackers would hit and take off....each time I got them close to me in that clear water they would see me and take off again....drag screaming....each one making 3-4 runs. Can't wait to hit it again....life is good!
