First sighted ribbons (3) last evening. Caught several perch; sacrificed two 9" fish, both males, for tacos. Mixed the perch meat with that from LMB donor fish, and a BG that swallowed the hook.
My pond's spring awakening certainly comes on later than that of most of you forum posters' ponds.
But then again, PB magazine doesn't show up in the mail for about 5 weeks after first reported here on the forum either!
I'm appalled to report that the 7" BG fought harder than the 8" GSF that I also caught.
Rationalizations and excuses (for DD1, JHAP, and all the rest of us GSF lovers): BG was fighting for its life-gut hooked; GSF had a mouth wound from being caught last week, knew I'd let it go again, and was prolly still tired. HA HA!
