Tonganoxie, Kansas

Third to last fish of the day. My dad and I doubled up and then I caught another dink immediately the next cast. Today was all about quantity, not a fish over a pound was landed today between my dad and I, but we landed about 20 dinks, and 2 big bluegill on 7 different lures collectively.

My first fish that I’ve landed on the frog! And also the first fish I’ve caught on my new bait casting combo. Also my first fish on top water this year. I caught about 10 fish today on 4 different lures and all three of my combos that I brought today. Then I landed another dink on the frog with a bunch of salad.

A couple of dinks later I landed this 3/4 pounder. I also caught a fish with my Baitcaster and that small bluegill bait that I’ve used at Merritt lake.

First fish of the day, my PB green sunfish. Put up a good fight on the ultralight. I then proceeded to get bit on almost every other cast and landed about half of those dinks. I didn’t take pictures of those fish.

I still can’t get over how clear this water was, that’s probably why they were loving the black and blue wacky worm though. Fifth and final fish of the day. My dad beat me in numbers today (by one) 5-6, but I had the bigger dinks caught on my ultra light, which was a lot of fun.

Fourth fish of the day, once the sun was fully up, the bite slowed down on the wacky worm.

Third fish of the day. My dad also caught his first wacky worm fish before this one.

Second fish of the day, also the biggest of the day. My dad also caught a small one after I caught that first fish, on a salt water curly tail on a jig head! I let my worm fall right beside a lay-down, and I waited for about ten seconds, and when I went to twitch the worm, I felt a fish on so I set the hook, but the fish must’ve taken my worm back into the snag, because he had wrapped around a branch, luckily he was hooked good and I landed him.
