Pondhopping Friday

[Bankbeater]

I had the day off so I went pondhopping to check out a new spot and try my luck at some old ones.  First pond I tried before sun up with a 41 degree air temp produced nothing for three hours using jigs, plastics, and cranks.  On to pond number 2.  Downsized my offering to a 1/8 ounce white spinner.  I caught three dinks between 6" and 8" long.  OK, I'm not getting skunked, on to pond 3.  Still using the little white spinner, I caught 2 LM about a pound each and found a crankbait hanging in the tree.  After about an hour I drove out to a new place that I heard about.  Caught 2 LM about 1-1/2 pounds each still using the white spinner.  After about half an hour with no bites I headed back home for lunch.
