Another thirty minute Challenge

Today was hair salon day , so threw a rod in the car .
My 6’ St Croix Avid ULF paired with a Daiwa Legalis LT 1000d and three pound test P-line .
I already had a 1/32 Trout Magnet jig head and Sowbug body tied on so I went with it.
The weather was wet . One of those drizzly days where you’re not sure if it’s going dump on you or not .
When I go out of the car at the lake , after dropping my wife off , I set my iphone timer at thirty minutes and walked straight to the boat ramp .
About my third cast I caught a nice crappie. After snapping a picture, and releasing it , the rain picked up and I headed for the car .
About ten minutes and it slacked up and I was back at the ramp .
My next crappie turned out to be the biggest and I thought if I’d only brought a cooler , I’d keep a couple .
Ended up with three crappies and a small bass , in less than twenty minutes of actual fishing time.
I kinda enjoy these little timed outings .
The pressure of catching something in an allocated time adds to the excitement.
The wife has PT in the morning, if it’s not raining I’ll be at it again :) .

Nice catches

Good job! Thanks for sharing

I got lucky :) . Fishing involves a lot of luck IMO , but one can increase their chances.

That’s a stud crappie! That would have me thinking tacos too. A good trip in a small window, good job.

Nice catch.

Gave it a try this morning.
Had thirty minutes to fish while my wife had her PT .
Drizzling, overcast morning, calm wind .
Different lake .
The lake was down about a foot from last couple of weeks .
I took the 5’9” Reddington Butterstick one weight flyrod with a rubber legged spider .
Took me several minutes to catch a fish . The schools of small gills were missing.
I did see a few bass cruising the shallows . They may have contributed to the inactivity of the gills .
I only caught two gills today before I snagged my line on a back cast and lost my entire leader . Good thing I didn’t hook into anything large , I would have probably broken off .
I got to fish about twenty five minutes.

O dictions we’re calm and warm down here this morning and I wanted to go SO bad. Glad you got out and found some.
