I flyfished a local public pond on December 26...day after Christmas. Still had open water. As I write this today, December 29, the local ponds are once again (4th time this season?) covered in ice, and it appears they will remain that way until Spring.
I flyfished for 3 hours in 33 degree F weather, used a chartreuse microjig under a strike indicator. Caught 45 small crappies.
That should do it for fishing this year. :)
I'll post a separate blog entry detailing my year, and giving all the year-end statistics. :)
Dave, that is down right awesome that you are able to get open water on a pond on December 26th. Those fish gotta' eat........................
ReplyDeleteChartreuse?
Of course, Mel! :) Chartreuse is (usually) GREAT for Crappies!
