Good Fishin'...

I made another short excursion to a couple of small ponds with my brother in law last week and had a ton of fun!  The weather was perfect and the water is getting warm.  I started out with a shallow diving chartreuse Strike King crankbait and caught a nice little one pounder on my 5th cast!    The pace slowed and over the next hour I wore out the hinges on my tacklebox as I tried spinnerbaits and crankbaits of every color! I was beginning to get frustrated.  Then I remembered the new pack of 1/8 ounce Roadrunner Jigs I had bought on sale back in the winter.  It was a great choice, as over the next 2 hours I caught 4 more bass, 4 nice crappies and 2 bluegill.  Can't wait to go back!
