Since Thanksgiving...................................... ...
Wife's Birthday.......................................... .........................................done.
Christmas Eve/Day............................................... ...............................done.
New Years Eve/Day............................................... ..............................done.
Christmas lights/decorations put away.............................................. .....done.
Wife has the day off to watch the Grandson.......................................... ..I'm outta' here!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
Since Santa didn't leave me a 10 lb'er in my stocking, today was my day to go looking for one.
On the water @ 8:00 a.m. and finished @ 5:00 p.m. at my "favorite southern beach".
Nice mostly overcast day with variable winds from the south and switching to the north giving the water a little bit of chop.
My pal from Sparks was there at dark-o-thirty and had landed 4 by the time I made it into the water.
From 8:00 till 1:30, three of us fishing didn't even get a hit/bump/touch/strike................ugh..............
I switched from a 'cator, spinning rod with spoon, and stripped buggers & beetles too.
At 1:30 I got my first strike with a midge + balanced leech combo.
As the day progressed, the "bite" picked up. Read....................AFTERNOON BITE. :)
So, between 1:30 till about 4:30 I went 1 for 11.
I was getting a little concerned that I was going to go home tonight smelling like a "pole cat". :D
The one fish that I managed to land was a rat.
Them are some pretty bad numbers...............................:mad:
But, my excuse is that the fish were taking my size #10 midge.
Yep, the fishes were on a "Cherry Bomb" pattern today.
A "Cherry Bomb" midge (as explained to me) has a black body, red wire rib (medium sized wire), and an over sized metallic red bead head.
I've often heard that Pyramid fish will take any color........as long as it's RED. ;););)
Not a "great numbers day" fishing, nor a bad day either.
I just didn't get that 10 lb'er that was suppose to be in my Christmas stocking !!!!!! :D:D:D
There you have it again, another Pyramid report.
