Minnow Hunting
Rudd and golden pond shiners really, not the tiny little shiny fish used to catch crappies. The bigger shiny fish used to catch pike. Being that I like to catch anything big enough to pull a little, and especially beautiful specimen fish, so I sometimes go looking for species that get overlooked. Rudd and pond shiners are some of the prettiest fish I have caught, but for a small, densely populated, not too picky fish, well, they are a pain to catch! I fished too ponds today, caught tons of bluegills and a few small bass, then on the last cast hooked a golden on a Floss Pinkie. Small, gorgeous, and hard to come by... I'm happy.
Nice catch on a stick, a great photo!!! That pond looks very inviting. Does it hold Pickeral?
