First time out I've hooked anything up since that big snow/cold front changed everything. Again I was just working minnows and bobbers. Hoping the action will continue to warm with the weather!

I take horrible fish selfies... oh well. I was just zippering up my pack and turned back around to look at my bobbers. I had two out and only one was there. I've been watching bobbers for so long w/o any hits I said to myself 'eh, that bobber must be out there' and continued the scan the waters looking for it. :wink:

Then a voice in my head said :wave: Hellloooo.... REEL!!!! :D I scrambled to pick up the rod and landed this sleek 15"er:

I caught 'im early and it ended up being my only catch of the day... but I heard two guys in a boat roll in and say they only caught one. So I guess I was actually doing pretty well. C'mon weather!!

I made two casts on Sunday and left due to the wind just being unbearable. Talked to one boater who was skunked all morning on the west side.

Nice bass Minstrel!
