If there was a 1/2 thumb icon, tonight would have rated tonight such. Rather, I gave it a smiley face.
I hit one of my little private areas in the Wings Neck area tonight with the fly rod. When there was an active herring run in Red Brook, this was a consistant spot to take large fish, even on flies. But, this run died several years ago, and big fish are sort of an anomoly these days.
But, the smalls (18-24") made a nice showing this evening. As has been the case since late a April, this area always seem to have a good supply of small bait. In spite of that, I never see bass breaking on them. :confused:
The bass tonight were deep, and in close. Hanging right at the edge of the drop-off. Most times only a 20' cast was needed.
Nice having a little spot like this to fish a minute from the house. ;)
