Plenty 'O' flags and fish with the newbie G.O.D
« on: Mar 19, 2014, 02:21 PM »
wednesday 3/19
met up with newbie G.O.D jschmacher for some mid week fishin at a local pond. it was about 14 degrees when i arrived, dead calm with bright sunshine. barometer was at 30.3..nice day usually means no fish.  glad that old saying was waaay wrong.  i got set up on 6 FOW with medium shiners. local shops have hard time getting anything bigger for some reason. I had constant flags from 830 to 1045. at one point i had 4 up at once. jschmacher was a bit slower but would make up for it later in the morning/early afternoon. i ended up with a 5 species day: bass, pickerel, crappie, yellow perch and a white perch.

I caught some decent sized bass-4.5, 3.13 and 2.8.  Jeff came in with a 4.2, 3.5(?) and another i don't remember  (GOD effect)

my bait got to be quite small and all i was getting was perch so out came the jig stick. slaughtered the yellow perch.

as the day went on the water in the holes seemed to get cloudier with a green tint..very strange

enough of the words, here are a few pics...(jeff will add his in)

4.5 bass


3.13 bass


bob the blob perch..i took my shiner out of his mouth and there was another one in there..DOH!



crappie



white perch


bunch of perch from jiggin a hole for less than 5 minutes



a great day for sure!!

some guy came out on the ice with a very thick accent (irish i think)..jeff tackled him and said..'where's the pot o gold'..just kiddin..
he said he was a little drunk and we said that's a requirement on the ice

Great day indeed. Jim was already on the ice when I pulled up but had to make a run for bait as I only had a dozen left in the tank. Same story at B&A as the local shop in town NO BIG BAIT ??? ???. I started off slower than Jim on my line of traps but did pick it up as the day went on. Ended the day with 3 Bass a pickeral and several yellows both on the tilts and the jig stick. Was a way better day than being at work,shhhhh don't tell ;D ;D. Jim thanks for the great company we'll hit it again somewhere soon.

Nice work, GODs.  Lenz, looks like the newbie held his own.  Now if you can just get him to smile...... more homebrew, more home-brew!

Nice job guys. I think a sick day might be in my future to cash in on some of this late season activity. I kinda feel something coming on now actually. ;)
Suit up and show up!

way to do you old stockens. was a good day for it. melting snow mixing with mud this time of year would most likely cause the cloudness in the water, jim.
