Haven't been fishing in a while. Headed to a lake that used to be fairly close but now is a 90 mile drive. It was worth the drive. I caught over 100 Gills using a Bison colored Trout Magnet....SOS 2# test line. I used a 1/24 ounce jig head with a #8 hook....fighting a little wind today. The Gills were 7-9 inches long. I was twitching using a Tict Ice Cube 6' 9" Rockin 'Drift UL Mebaru rod. The fish were holding tight to the bank. A lot of fun today with this setup. Didn't take the boat today....my records from last year had them in the same spot...same pattern on this day. I was getting ready to catch another 100 and moved to a new spot......looking for the shellcrackers.......but stepped in a fire ant hill. Needless to say my day was finished. They only hit me on the left leg from knee down...about 60 bites. There is always tomorrow. Life is good!
