On another note, I fished my pond around noon yesterday and the LMB were surprisingly active. I only landed 1 fish - about a 15-incher - caught on a fluke where there was some feeding activity near the surface. I had a vicious strike in shallow water up by the inlet creek mouth but my stinking flouro leader snapped immediately. I'm swearing off flouro line for a few years - I've had too many fish break off (and I was using Sunline - not cheapo stuff).


If you're too scared to throw that bait where the fish are, why did you tie it on?
