Visited my buddy's pond for a few days and struggled to catch fish. Tuesday PM we fished for a couple hours. Charlie caught 2 nice bream and 1 bass. I caught nada, none. 1st time I've scratched in his pond.
Wednesday we both scratched. Really hard to imagine we didn't get a bite.
Thursday morning we did better. Fish became active. I caught several nice bream only after I changed from white Beetle Spin to green one.
Charlie was fishing for bass and had a big strike on a top water Rapala. Turned out to be a really nice crappie. Picture doesn't do justice to the size.
All released.
On a side note we had a dead battery and had to paddle for 3 days. We thought the motor was dead because I cleaned a ton of line off shaft. Charger had died which accounted for dead battery. We didn't figure this out until end of trip.
I made the Catfish Stew recipe I posted earlier and y'all need to try it. Really good. Had spaghetti with venison meat sauce next night. Least we ate good.Attachment 332429Attachment 332430Attachment 332431
