Pond #1: I spent about 2.5 hours here. Saw one 4" fish swim out of the shallows...that was the only live fish I saw the entire time. Didn't catch anything, obviously.
Pond #2: Spent about an hour here (had some evening dinner plans that sent me home). Caught a lotta fish. Mostly crappies, as well as a few bluegills, and a 17.5" bass. Most fish were caught on a microjig about 18" below an indicator. I also caught a few of the crappies on a Micro Gamechanger.
These fish were surprisingly active for being in water that had been iced over just days before.
First open-water fish of the year:

Nice photo of micro GC. How is attached to the leader? Is that a snap or swivel? Does it not change effectiveness of flies? Certainly would make changing flies....wait for it.. a snap.
ReplyDeleteI've used No-Knot Fas-Snaps for years...for both flyfishing and icefishing. It makes changing flies/lures very quick and easy...with the added bonus that it allows the flies to have good movement, similar to a non-slip loop knot. I use the medium size. For bigger bass flies, a large size might work better, for size 10 or less dry flies, you can use the small size.
DeleteBass Pro sells the No Knot Fas Snaps...or google for other suppliers.
