ejtaylor822 Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 We have had some beautiful weather here in central NC the last several weeks. I have been itching to spend some quality time down by the pond. But, work and family have allowed me to only spend 15 20 minutes at a time. Today, wife and little girl were out and I got to spend several hours on the pond. My drought was finally broken. Caught three that probably went about pound each. Good thing is that even though they were small, they were real healthy looking. No blemishes, vivid colors and just very healthy looking - the colors were absolutely great. Caught two on a Jitterbug love those top water hits. The third was on a Yozuri live bait minnow one of my favorite lures which I eventually lost > :'( . Started out throwing a jig with a brush hog but didn't get a single hit. Heard them hitting the surface all over the pond so that's when I brought out the spinning rod and put on the jitterbug. Second cast brought in my first of the day. Went to another section of the pond and caught my second. Probably about a pound and a half about 15. Brought back out the BC and put on a buzz. Got one hit but missed. I know, should have had on a trailer. Had them in my bag but just didn't want to fool with them. Put on a spinner and nothing. Put the live bait minnow on and was working along a grass bed and got the third. Had another one shortly after, but, he wiggled off when I got him close. All in all though, it was a great day. Felt good to be out there finally. Hope to get back out tomorrow. Eddie Quote
