Pond Boss Forums FISH & FISHING Show off your catch Dinner

I decided that I wanted fish for dinner, and I thought that I could catch a HSB relatively quickly. I planned on catching 1 and quitting. Nope. Chummed a bit with Optimal Hand Throw pellets, used a Chubby Stubby Steve's on a 2/0 hook and caught 6 in roughly 30 minutes. I released the 3 smaller ones, used a rubberized net to get them safely out of the water and back in. These are 4 year old fish. I didn't weigh any, the top one was re-absorbing eggs.

So, now I have fillets in the fridge, I will remove any of the red flesh, vac pack and store for the winter.
