Splashin' In At Gallows Pond
Decided to take another trip down to Gallows Pond on Sunday after a Bass Pro trip, since our Saturday trip went quite well. We headed down to our honey spot and started fishing. My first cast, I pulled in a nice 2lb Smallie. My 4th cast I pulled in another Smallie, probably around a pound and a half, MAYBE 2lbs. But I doubt it, still a good fish none the less. My 5th cast, lol... oh man. My line got slammed, my rod almost got pulled out of my hands because I wasn't 100% paying attention, I was talking to a buddy of mine. I managed to land a 5 lb 7 ounce Largemouth; mid-water. I was wading about waist deep into the water. What a fighter, I thought I was going to lose him a couple of times. Took a good minute to bring him in. After that brought in 2 other 2-3 lb'ers, Dave caught a nice 2.5 pound Smallie himself. All in all a great day. Did some snorkeling at Gallows as well, got some great video footage of schooling Largemouth and Sunfish around underwater structure, the water there is beautiful. I'll be uploading the vids to youtube and thus on here as well within the next day or two, so stay on the lookout for em' Tight lines guys, and always remember CPR! Catch, Photograph, Release!
I went down there yesterday morning. Couldn't get anything going! Tough place to get in and out of.
I also forgot to mention I lost 3 fish here, Saturday and Sunday. Big fish too, 2 Largemouth and 1 Smallmouth. The fish fight HARD here. Great times!
