Got in a quick trip up to the new reservoir here in Attica on Saturday. Fished from 3:30 to 5:00 and found the fish very willing to play. Started out with a small 1/64 leadfree black/chart/pink kip jig with waxworm tip fixed about 6'-7' below a weighted float. Caught bluegill on my first 2 consecutive casts, so just kept throwing with out any meat tip and continued to catch fish. Nice beefy 8"-9" bluegill too. On one of the casts, got a lift bite (float just laid flat in the water) and set the hook to the sound of peeling drag coming from my UL with 4lb mono.
HOLY COW! :bigfish:
Crappie measured 16.5"!!! That is biggest one i have ever caught by a full inch. It was windy and a little on the cool side, but the action sure kept me happy happy. Ended my day with 16 bluegill and only the one big crappie.
