Went out again today.  The wind was very strong out of the North and the air was chilly, about 58 degrees; not the best day for fishing by most accounts.  These bass weight about 3 lbs.  I didn’t measure them or weigh them so, I’m just guessing.  It appears that some bass are now on their beds but most bass, on a day like today with the cold front, would probably not be.  I caught these in a small sheltered cove where I usually catch a few bluegill on the fly rod, which I did and a few fairly good crappies as well.  After I was sure that there were no more bass interested in the worm I switched to my fly rod with a clouser minnow fly in olive and silver.  The fly got me the bluegills and crappie.  I did catch a nice crappie in that same area using a Yum craw dad.  I used the crawdad to see if I could interest some bass with it but only caught the one crappie.  I didn’t have too much time to fish today because I had to pick up my 6 year old. grand daughter, Evie, at the bus stop.  But, on the way in I managed to catch a nice drum on that chartruse grub pin spinner.  I showed these pictures to my grand daughter and now she wants me to take her with me, (I’ve got a fisher girl in the making).  If the weather is good I’ll take her out this weekend.
