26" 10.63# RW 127%
I threw out a couple handfuls of AM600 and after about 10 minutes a few CC started to feed right along the shore. The LMB, YP and a few BG were feeding in deeper water. I'd say there were about 10 of the CC that were sucking pellets off of the surface, so I grabbed a rod that was spooled with 12# test, an Owner #4 circle hook and a Chubby Stubby. It took a while, and I had to drag it so the line was going over a leaf that was floating on the surface of the pond to act as a bobber. I had to have the pellet right at the surface, as that's where they were keyed to slurping down the pellets.
It took a while to get him/her in, and the rest of them disappeared for the night. That's the first CC that I've been able to catch out of the pond this year. It was stocked in Spring 2009 as a 9"-12" fish, as it's adipose fin was clipped off.
