Afternoon At The Long Pond
First time back in months. They are doing a lot of road construction, and i guess now that fall is coming the people are all staying home because i had the whole lake to myself. When i arrived there was no wind and it looked like glass, at about 4 o'clock. I figured i would try only for the big ones, so i jiged it up. Fishing was ok with a bunch of shorts, until about an hour to sunset and then it got a bunch better. I started down the shore after going threw the tunnel and it was on. Still catching shorts but the action was much faster and they seemed to be getting a little bigger all the time. Finally at 7 oclock almost exactly i hook into a decent fish. Fight was on and a min or so later resting on my scale was a fat 3.3 lb LMB. My biggest of the trip and at that lake to date. Same picture as all the big fish lately sitting in the shade under a good size tree over the water.
