Finally got to hit the hard water. Went up friday night, and between the three of us, caught a ridiculous amount of medium bluegill, a few bass apiece, and there was one pike, 24", no pic, since Chris, knowing i wanted to kill it, decided that as soon as my back was turned to set it free to be caught again. (which also means I couldn't pull the mouth size, sorry guys).
Here's the catch of the weekend, 2.5lbs, on a medium shiner dead center of the pond, 2ft off the bottom.
feels good to have walked on water. All in all it was a great weekend.
