Secret Pond, 2/7/19

Debbie and I headed out to a private pond we call the Secret Pond (inside joke). Anyway, it's a place where we typically catch loads of fish. Alas, today was not the day for that :-)  . Oh well, we still had a great time and did manage to catch a few. Here's some pics...

Here's a pic of Debbie with out little 10' Jon boat. It's an old '86 model Landau 1048, extremely light (only 62lbs!), and easy to load / unload. The 48" width is a big plus for stability while moving around in the boat. 
 

The typical beetle spin setup that has always worked in the pond had no takers, so Debbie switched to live bait and found a few bluegills. 


Another beautiful bluegill Debbie caught. She loves fishing with live bait on her 10' B&M composite Crappie pole setup.


 I was playing with a Zoom fluke, rigged weightless, and picked up this anxious little guy.
