U-boat Aficionado Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 Fishing a tiny (maybe 1/4 acre at most) private pond in SE Pennsylvania over the weekend and caught a few nice ones. The fish in the photo was the second biggest and was taken on a BPS Professional Series popper. I saw it come up under the popper while it was sitting motionless no more than 15 feet from the rod tip, I gave a small twitch and it exploded on it. A nice fight getting it out of that slop on my new Veritas, Lews SS and 8lb mono. I don't have a photo of the biggest which I also caught top water but with ultralight tackle and 4lb mono on a tiny 3cm Salmo Lil Bug. That was an epic fight and I almost broke it off when it managed to wrap around the dock post. Caught fish on a bunch of various lures like the new Berkley Warpig lipless crank, wacky rigged Dingers, and the Whopper Plopper. Quote
