Thread: Windy Pond trip

I went back to the Town pond again this morning.
It was colder last night than the night before and colder this morning at 11:30 .
The wind , blowing from a different direction today and thankfully not as strong . Still it was pretty cold , even on the sunny side of the pond .
I had gone specifically targeting the green fish this morning, with homemade spinners , Bobby Garland Baby Shad’s fished weightless , and 4” senko type worms .
In an hour and half , nothing I had drew a strike .
I even went to the car and found some mini Trout Magnets and some 1/80 handtied jigs that I fished float and fly didn’t work .
I dung around in tge tackle I what I had taken with me and found a single bison Trout magnet body .
I did have jigheads , so I tied on the only TM I had with me and walked over to the shaded dam side of the pond .
With my first cast as I twitched the bison TM in , I got my first bite and caught my first fish of the day . A nice little bass . I was happy to see and feel something on my line .
About thirty minutes later I told myself , if I would catch one more , I’d pack it in and go home to warm up .
About three casts later , I hooked up on what turned out to be the nicest one I’d caught at the pond lately.
I’m going to have to put some TM bodies in my fishing stool pouch and leave them in there .
Today my fish were caught on my 6’ St Croix Avid panfish paired with a Daiwa Fuego LT 1000d , spooled with 3# P-line .
