Conneaut

This was one of the first times that we had a set schedule where we wanted to get on the road by a certain time. And we managed to leave at 7 like we planned, got to Burger King shorty after, got some noms, and were on our way before 8. The goal was to get there and meet the people from Chris' job to fish at 9. Turns out that 9 was the time we should have left and not the meeting time. So got there early, but on time with what we planned.

Well it was a pretty good day out fishing for the first one of the season. Went to Conneaut for the first time and couldn't have had better weather to go. It was a little hot later in the afternoon and forgetting my gatorade in the car was horrible once the sun really came out to play. There was a lot of walking involved that I did not know of. I REALLY need to organize my bag so I don't have 40lbs of stuff on my back. But the highlight of the day fishing wise was seeing the first "catch" of the day jump out of the water. At first I though chris' friend caught a carp but it turned out to be the biggest small mouth I had ever seen. I have never really seen one any bigger then a pound but this thing had to be at least 6. It was impressive, though he did not land it due to the fish going under a rock where he tried to pull him up and snapped the line while trying to get away . But no one landed anything they had on the line. Lucky for me I didn't loose any, but that's only because I didn't have any bits. Next time we go I'll be more prepared and well aware of the amount of walking.
So yeah.... One More Cast!!!
