Title: Full moon
Post by: Registered Kayak on Jan 02, 2018, 08:03 PM
 ;D Haas I knew it!
This pond I fish always fairs very on full moon and it happened to coincide with rising temps and dropping barometer. All planned for.
Caught roughly 40 fish between 9 and 11 inches. All released. Used rosy reds and size 6 mosquito hook with a small split shot about 4 inches up. Also had a fishing partner use a green tungsten and shoulder hooking the minnows do very well.
White light brought them in. Just have to figure out my sonar battery since not holding a charge. Only had it for 2 hours. Luckily I tied a bobber stop at 15ft to compensate.
Trying to find that 16"er.
