Thread: Sometimes we get stupid.

I have had the worst fall of fishing...so far......in many a year. I went today looking for crappie at Nickajack and found none...zero...nothing. I knew a bank that holds a lot of red breast sunfish so I headed to it and whipped out my super UL spooled up with 1.5# test line. I caught around 100 of those and some of them were in the 8 inch range. A lot of fun on the supper UL with the very light line. I started catching yellow perch. We have yellow perch in middle TN but they are few and far between.....and usually very small. My first thought was “I am not going to catch many so no need to save one fish”. Well after I had caught 15 of them like in the pics I thought “Man was I stupid not to save them”. ‘This can happen to us at any age...but it seems the older one gets the more it can happen....LOL. These fish hit a Bison colored Trout Magnet on the TM 1/64 ounce black jig head. They were in 4-6 feet of water off of a clay bank with a pea gravel bottom.
