Met a nice gentleman while fishing the other day and he was asking about my technique of using the Trout Magnet. He was already using the Trout Magnet just wanted to see how I fished it. We arranged to meet at his spot and while it took just a little while to find the fish once we did it was the best day I have ever had in 50 years of fishing for Gills and shell cracker. I am not going to give a number caught as I have no idea.....but it was a ton. Caught just as many shell crackers as Gills...50/50 or pretty close. I sat on a bucket...in same place....and caught fish on almost every cast for 4 hours....so do the math and it comes up to a lot of fish. I lost my fish counter and need to order another one. The gentleman I was with did the same...only he stood while fishing....LOL. The drag was screaming and the UL rod was bent double. We both were using 2# test SOS line and the shell crackers and Gills really tested the line. The color of choice for me today was Bison. I was twitching and the other gentleman was fishing the TM under the float. It was getting hot on that bucket and I decided to call it a day as my back and right hand literally were cramping from twitching and catching so many fish. This is the first time I know that I surrendered to the fish....they were still hitting but I was beat. The fish were of exceptional quality. The girth on these copper nose bluegill was 10 inches and more. There were even some Gill Crackers in the bunch...a cross between a bluegill and a shell cracker. This was a day a bluegill fisherman dreams about....a once in a lifetime day...but we are hoping to get back together and try it again. My iPhone camera does not do justice to the color on these fish. Thanks to the gentleman for taking me to his spot and thanks to Trout Magnet for making the best panfish and trout lure on the market. I have had a great week of fishing and am thinking I need to take a day...or weekend off....but who knows....maybe after a good nights sleep will hit it again. Life is good!
