Todd and I had a unique experience out at the Mill Pond-- carp were jumping all over that place and biting like crazy! I caught a few, but they were so flippy that they flipped right off the hook before I finished contemplating touching em.
He caught a nice, dark, rock bass too.
Summer sure is in full swing now! I've been seeing snakes and other critters out like crazy.
Most of the fishing places I frequent are beginning to have some thicker weed coverage-- which means more frequent line cleanings. Oh, what a mess; that'll teach me to unspool an entire reel of line! Actually, I messed up and put the line on backwards and had to redo it right. Ughhh.
I wasn't the only one not paying attention to details. As I was sweeping the porch, a toad came out to play. I called Sophie over to see what she thought of it and it took her forever to notice it. Hehe, they are friends, even though Toady seems to be impersonating a rock.
Sophie went to Coffee Creek with Jean and I. We noticed a little snake and Sophie accidentally stepped on it.
The little ole snake stood up and gave her a hiss-- I'm SSsssssssunbathing here!!!
I gave Jean a fly with an actual hook on it this time!
And she totally whipped some gills!
Meanwhile, my fly was being spied on by a incognito frog.
And it's buddy:
And there other buddy:
Ahh, another happy fish that got to Ride the Hook! :-)
In other news, we went to visit SnowBall at her new home.
She's fitting in well at Uncle Bobby's.
Sophie missed her and they played together a little, like old times.
She seemed very happy.
Purrrrrty girl! :-)
Check out the moon that evening! ^
